- 0:00It's the worldwide sports radio network.
- 0:05Yankees general manager is quote, UN quote, going to town
- 0:10at the trade deadline after designating DJ Lemayu for
- 0:14assignment and losing Clark Schmidt to Tommy John surgery.
- 0:17What will Brian Cashman, Lenny from MIT and the rest of the
- 0:21front office come away with on their shopping spree?
- 0:24And will it be enough? All Star replacements are being
- 0:27named like hot cakes for injured stars, but the Mets $765 million
- 0:32man Juan Soto hasn't been one of them.
- 0:35Soto was mad, but when asked, it was mainly as he put it.
- 0:39What do you think? It's a lot of money on the table
- 0:42if I make it, seemingly forgetting that he just made
- 0:45over 3/4 of a billion dollars in guaranteed money.
- 0:49And before we make a call to the pen and catch up with Nick on
- 0:53goodies bag of balls, we will RIP around some interesting NFL
- 0:56offseason developments. Another tremendous Thursday live
- 1:02edition of Jabba and the Mouth. Even that's are going to.
- 1:07Give him a. Significant you're going to have
- 1:09a ton of money to spend. Why not putting in one of the
- 1:12top three offensive? Players in the league.
- 1:22We're going to be looking at Aaron Judge and saying that he
- 1:24can't. Win the big game, Michael
- 1:26Jordan. Said.

- 3:31shame, shame on you. You know him as Aaron.
- 3:34We know him as the Fishman, as you know our our bored up guy.
- 3:39He's the one and only Tommy poops.
- 3:41He was crapping in his pants last week.
- 3:44Well, actually on Monday. He hopefully will last
- 3:47throughout the show. We'll keep him away from the
- 3:49toilet tonight. Java.
- 3:51It has been a crazy, crazy week. Just baseball.
- 3:55There really isn't anything to talk about right now.
- 3:57The Knicks announced their new head coach, Mike Brown and some
- 4:02interesting statements throughout his press conference
- 4:06with the New York Knicks. We don't have that on the list
- 4:08tonight, but I'm sure I'm going to get into at some point on the
- 4:12show. I mean, Mike Brown's a complete
- 4:14idiot. He looked really bad at the
- 4:16press conference. I got a chance to check out the
- 4:1925 minute press conference of just an absolute debacle.
- 4:23Leon Rose should have kept him away from the mic because he's
- 4:26not very good on the mic, that's for damn sure.
- 4:28The Knicks hire these guys that are just absolutely just
- 4:32tremendously stupid on a damn mic.
- 4:34Let's keep him away from the mic and just stick to basketball.
- 4:37So it's been a very warm week. It's been rainy here in Long
- 4:42Island, Long Island, New York. How is it in Nebraska right now?
- 4:47It's not too bad. There's some storms supposed to
- 4:49be rolling in, but it's the humidity like usual.
- 4:52But other than that, it hasn't been too terribly bad.
- 4:55It is. It has been hot, but it's been
- 4:58bearable. The, the humidity gets you, your
- 5:01powder turns to paste, but other than that, it's, it's not too
- 5:05bad. I am lost.
- 5:06I am absolutely lost when it comes to these press conferences
- 5:09for New York. I, I, it doesn't matter who it
- 5:12is. It could be Aaron Boone and
- 5:13obviously Boone's been with the Yankees for over 5 years.
- 5:16It could be Tom Thibodeau who sits there and answers the
- 5:19questions and looks like he's going to turn red or half his
- 5:22hair is going to fall out of his head.
- 5:23Or at least the rest of his hair looks like he's going to fall
- 5:27out of his head. We've seen many, many different
- 5:29coaches and managers go up there at press conference.
- 5:33Remember Rex Ryan Speedy with his mop on his head?
- 5:36It does. And then Robert Sala, deer in
- 5:38the headlights as we call him Bambi.
- 5:40He he doesn't even know how to speak to the press because he's
- 5:43so, you know, I think he's so lost when it comes to the game
- 5:47of football. He just lost his way on a damn
- 5:50mic. So let's not forget what in
- 5:51between the great out of gates with his googly eyes, yeah?
- 5:54Well, I, I, let's stop getting into the New York Jets.
- 5:57I just, I brought up Robert Sala because he is Bambi.
- 6:00We brought him up so many times on this show, so I had to throw
- 6:03him under the bus as you see right there on the.
- 6:05Restoration of the graphic. Well, obviously San Francisco,
- 6:08now San Francisco has to deal with his deer in a headlights
- 6:11ass. But nevertheless it there's
- 6:13something about New York and the press conferences with some of
- 6:18these guys, even the athletes are a little lost when they get
- 6:21on their mics and they try to speak to the press and they ask,
- 6:24and I'll say this, everybody says about the New York press is
- 6:27that they're crazy. They're mean.
- 6:29They like to get answers or questions out that make no sense
- 6:33or try to pull something from the athletes that the athletes
- 6:36don't want to answer. But I don't even think it has
- 6:38anything to do with the press. I just think the athletes are so
- 6:41damn stupid here. They'll answer any question.
- 6:44I would sit there and say, I plead the fifth.
- 6:47I plead the fifth. I've got no answers for this.
- 6:49I plead the 5th. No, these stupid guys, and I'm
- 6:53not naming anybody. They go out there and they say,
- 6:56yeah, I'll answer that stupid question.
- 6:57Why not? I'll be stupid today.
- 6:59You know, it's just, it's dumb. It's absolutely dumb.
- 7:02And Mike Brown, I, I and I know everybody, this is not something
- 7:06we we're going to get into. But I have to say this, when I
- 7:09watched that press conference, not only is he a deer in the
- 7:12headlights, I really don't think he had, he had anybody there
- 7:18helping him out. He had no PR person there.
- 7:21He had no management. They're giving him information
- 7:25as, as these questions were coming out.
- 7:27And he said, well, Tom Thibodeau did a great job and and
- 7:30meanwhile, he got the job from Tom Thib and then threw himself
- 7:35under the bus because he was stuttering the whole time
- 7:36because he couldn't answer the questions.
- 7:38He was lost. That press conference just told
- 7:42me one thing. Did the Knicks actually make the
- 7:45right choice on the coach that they picked?
- 7:47Or maybe he's just absolutely not going to speak to the
- 7:51players and he's just going to go out there and point fingers.
- 7:54Do this, do that. Are you saying?
- 7:55Because. Bambi Brown I.
- 7:57Know it has nothing to do with Bambi because Robert Sala really
- 8:00he didn't have to say anything he was just an idiot.
- 8:02I think Mike Brown actually knows what he's doing.
- 8:05I just don't know if he he's the right guy for the job when it
- 8:08comes to speaking here in New York.
- 8:10When you go up and you speak to the president, Joba, you know
- 8:13this more than anybody. You played for the Yankees and
- 8:16many, many times you've been up there when you were pitching and
- 8:19you had to deal with obviously in Cleveland with all the Nats
- 8:22and all the craziness. These all the different guys,
- 8:26all the different writers, all the different newspaper, you
- 8:29know, publicist, everybody are out there asking you questions.
- 8:32You know, they're going to ask you questions you don't want to
- 8:34answer. And usually if you were smart,
- 8:38and there are not many smart guys when it comes to here in
- 8:41New York, the athletes in New York, you would answer a
- 8:43question trying to beat a beat around the Bush.
- 8:47These guys, including the coaches, they don't know how to
- 8:50do that. And the PR people are just
- 8:52absolutely stupid. They can't help these guys.
- 8:54What speak? I mean, you're there, John, but
- 8:57you've been here before. You've understood that.
- 8:59I am just embarrassed. I would be embarrassed if I was
- 9:02Leon Rose when I had Mike Brown go up there and look like a
- 9:05complete idiot. Yeah, I think there's we, we had
- 9:10media training for like a week before.
- 9:13Like we, we did it in spring training and I think it really,
- 9:17it really helped some people and other people didn't really,
- 9:23really pay attention. I guess after my first year, I
- 9:27basically was able to, to lead the, the PR list just because
- 9:32of, you know, questions or whatever it it's you answer the
- 9:35question without answering the question.
- 9:37And when you say you plead the fifth, you don't ever do that
- 9:41because then that takes away your words.
- 9:44And now they have the power of the pin so they can create
- 9:46whatever they want. Like when Pavano came over and
- 9:49lied about what what happened. And then they find out if you're
- 9:53honest and upfront with the media there people are like, I
- 9:58hate them. And it's like, no, they're doing
- 10:00their job. Like there have been times where
- 10:01they've had to ask questions. They're like, I don't want to
- 10:04ask this question, but I have to, it's not my question.
- 10:06It's coming from above. And so if you just treat them
- 10:09with respect, there's some you don't like, but that's with any
- 10:12job. I it doesn't matter, But you
- 10:14have to have a little bit of feel And if there's questions
- 10:18that, you know, partake in something where you don't want
- 10:20to throw somebody on the bus, whatever, you answer the
- 10:22question without answering the question.
- 10:25And they'll try to, they'll try to reword it in a different way
- 10:28to get you to answer it. But if you have any wits about
- 10:31you, it, it's it. But when I say plead, when I say
- 10:35plead the 5th, I'm not saying like, Oh, I'm going to go out
- 10:37there and plead the 5th. I try to beat around the Bush.
- 10:40I try to not answer the question, but answer the
- 10:42question in a professional kind of way.
- 10:44That's what you would do if somebody came to me right now
- 10:47and asked me a question about Jabba the mouth and say, Hey,
- 10:50what do you think about working with Jabba?
- 10:52If I didn't like working with you, I, I wouldn't say I, I
- 10:54think that guy's an ass. No, I would beat around the Bush
- 10:57and say, you know what, I could shave one side of the balls, but
- 11:00you know, the other side might be a little too bushy, if you
- 11:03know what I mean. But I, I, that's the way I would
- 11:06answer those questions. Nevertheless, I am a
- 11:09professional person. I know how to answer questions.
- 11:12I'm not going to sit there and say but, but, but, but, but,
- 11:15but, but when you start, when you start stumbling over words
- 11:18too, then then they their mind starts turning too.
- 11:23And they're like, all right, well, he's either hiding
- 11:25something or doesn't want to say something.
- 11:27And then they try to pry. And it's just they can tell when
- 11:30you're uncomfortable. They can tell when you don't
- 11:32want to answer something. I mean, it's pretty easy.
- 11:35Like there was there was a time where, you know, Carter, my son
- 11:38was always around it and I couldn't throw my fastball for a
- 11:41strike. It was bad.
- 11:42I remember like Carter, you said that.
- 11:44Yeah, Yeah. And Carter comes in.
- 11:45I was like, hey, there's, there's.
- 11:46There you go, like. I can't give it to you more
- 11:48bluntly honest than that. And they love that.
- 11:51They love like, just the honesty like because we know.
- 11:54But it's when you try to sugarcoat it or you try to do
- 11:57like I had a great relationship. Obviously we've had one of one
- 12:01who's still a friend to this day that writes for MLB and Brian
- 12:04Hoke and you know, I love George King and in those guys.
- 12:08And it was just because it, it was like, hey, I understand.
- 12:12You're doing a job. I understand and I'm never going
- 12:15to run and I may take an extra 510 minutes where I think a lot
- 12:19of people don't use that. They're like, I just want to get
- 12:22this out of the way where, you know, when things go sour or
- 12:25whatever, or if you don't have APR director that can kind of
- 12:27lead you in a direction where take be like, hey, you know
- 12:32what, I'm going to go get some ice or make something up.
- 12:34But be like, hey, you know, give me like 10 minutes.
- 12:37I'll be back instead of, you know, like getting to it and,
- 12:40and rushing your questions and not having time to just like
- 12:43soak it in. But then also don't stand them
- 12:46up and be like, hey, I'll be there in 10 minutes and half
- 12:49hour. You're like, oh, maybe they're
- 12:50not there. They don't like that part
- 12:51either. So I think I'd.
- 12:52Be accountable. I think I'd be the craziest
- 12:55athlete when it comes to answering questions because I
- 12:57would do it in such a funny, ridiculous way where people
- 13:01would be like, that guy's out of his damn mind.
- 13:02You. Can't be better than Marshawn
- 13:04Lynch. I would throw myself so bad
- 13:09under the bus. You'd be like, OK, is that guy
- 13:11smoking something or he's just. On drugs or something.
- 13:13Oh, there we. Go.
- 13:15Oh my God. Bambi story.
- 13:17There we are. That's a good.
- 13:20One now we just have to make job fish.
- 13:21Now we just have to make sure he doesn't keep receipts.
- 13:23It'll be good. He's I think his head fits
- 13:27better on Bambi's body. Speaking of a deer in the
- 13:33headlights, before yesterday's game, Brian Cashman told the
- 13:36media that he is preparing to go to town at the MLB trade
- 13:41deadline for the Yankees. He added that there's a lot more
- 13:46needs on this Yankee roster than he expected considering how hot
- 13:51the Yankees started the season. He emphasized how the Yankees
- 13:55lost 3 starters from their World Series rotation, so he expects
- 14:00to make a starting pitcher their biggest priority despite getting
- 14:04good production from their young players like Will Warren.
- 14:08He also emphasized that the Yankees yes oh God, do not want
- 14:13to wear out their bullpen. Thank God he's opening his eyes
- 14:17even more, but still believes in Devin Williams and Luke Weaver.
- 14:23The Yankees also designated DJ Lemayu for assignment, meaning
- 14:28he's off the Yankees for a 40 man roster and has have seven
- 14:34days to decide if they want to trade or release him.
- 14:38The Yankees still owe DJ Lemayu 20 million over the next two
- 14:42years, regardless of what they decide to do with him in the
- 14:47next week. Cashman emphasized he wants jazz
- 14:51Chism, or I say say jazz jism, to be a full time second baseman
- 14:58with him being better defensively there than third
- 15:02base. Well, I by the way, jazz Chism
- 15:05or jism as I always say, I am not going to beat around a Bush
- 15:09here. So if you guys don't know what
- 15:10I'm talking about now, you know he is now entering the Home Run
- 15:14Derby. I am not excited about that.
- 15:16I'm not ecstatic. But all you Yankee fans, you
- 15:18want to see a Yankee in the Home Run Derby, Why not pick the
- 15:22chizzy himself and maybe he'll eat some cheese after.
- 15:25I don't know why he's going in the Home Run Derby, but hey,
- 15:29that's that's the least of my problems right here.
- 15:32The fact that Brian Cashman came out and we all know the Yankees
- 15:37are going into the trade deadline being buyers, they're
- 15:40not going to be sellers. They have never been sellers in
- 15:43the last 35 years. The Yankees have always been
- 15:47buyers. Now, this isn't obviously George
- 15:49Steinbrenner. This is how Steinbrenner and how
- 15:52Steinbrenner wants to make sure that the money is going to be
- 15:56safe when it comes to the luxury tax.
- 15:59And George used to throw money out there like he's buying a
- 16:02city, he's buying a building. So the Yankees have done that
- 16:05many, many times over the years. This is a different Yankee team.
- 16:09Now, obviously there's going to be spots to fill, especially in
- 16:14the rotation, especially in the starting rotation.
- 16:17The Yankees are always looking for a pitcher to fill in certain
- 16:20spots. The Yankees have not really been
- 16:22healthy as far as the rotation is concerned all season long.
- 16:26Believe it or not, the Yankees lineup has been fairly healthy.
- 16:30It's been really their rotation. That hasn't been over the years.
- 16:34It's always been their rotation. I mean, they're, I'm sorry, not
- 16:37the rotation. It's always been their lineup
- 16:39that hasn't been healthy. And the rotation has been fairly
- 16:42healthy over the years. But it's been over five years
- 16:48and Aaron Boone has the one thing that I could say Aaron
- 16:51Boone hasn't done very well in his coaching is managing is the
- 16:55bullpen. The bullpen is usually one of
- 16:57the best bullpens in baseball. In the first half of the season
- 17:00after the trade deadline, it's arguably one of the worst
- 17:03bullpens in baseball. And this is something that Brian
- 17:07Cashman has to lock in on because not because everybody
- 17:11wants to fire Aaron Boone and everybody's come out on social
- 17:14media. Every Yankee fan thinks that
- 17:15this is Aaron Boone's fault. You can take responsibility and
- 17:19Aaron Boone does take responsibility on the way the
- 17:23team is playing. But the one thing I can say
- 17:27about the Yankees is they're not getting timely hitting.
- 17:30This has been a problem for the Yankees for over 15 years.
- 17:34It's been a problem for them in the playoffs and they need to
- 17:36find guys that are going to fill in certain spots, especially in
- 17:41that lineup that's going to help out Aaron, Aaron Judge.
- 17:43It's going to help out guys like Goldschmidt, who has kind of
- 17:47fallen back. We we said this, he was hot in
- 17:49the beginning of the season. He went from batting 385 for the
- 17:53first month and now he's what, at 280 at at best 275?
- 17:58We, I didn't think he was going to stay at 3:50.
- 18:01I, I thought he, you know, over the next couple of weeks, he was
- 18:05going to drop a little bit over 300.
- 18:07But I, I've been very impressed with Paul Gulchman.
- 18:10First of all, he adds leadership.
- 18:12He's a great defender and he's added the offense that the, that
- 18:16the Yankees needed over the last couple of months when losing
- 18:20Juan Soto. And we're going to get into the
- 18:22whole Juan Soto situation. Trust me, we're going to get
- 18:25that. But designating DJ Lemayou is
- 18:30not a surprise. Anybody that thinks it was a
- 18:33surprise that DJ Lemayou was being designated, well, then you
- 18:37don't know what's going on with the fact that the Yankees are
- 18:40not getting enough from DJ Lemayou.
- 18:42What they're paying for him now, they're still going to have to
- 18:45pay DJ Lemayou no matter where he goes.
- 18:47If the Yankees decide to trade him, if the Yankees decide to
- 18:50release him, he's still going to get paid.
- 18:52So it doesn't matter if he's on the roster or not.
- 18:54But right now, he's taking away a spot where you can bring up or
- 18:59trade for where you can air. They had certain offensive
- 19:03options that the Yankees haven't had all season.
- 19:06The infield, they really, Volpe's been a shell of what he
- 19:10was in his rookie season. And I'm not saying he was
- 19:12hitting and he wasn't hitting for average last year, but he's
- 19:16been absolutely putrid throughout this season.
- 19:19And he's not giving you enough offense.
- 19:21He really hasn't been the defensive player he was in his
- 19:24rookie year. Remember, he won the Gold Glove
- 19:25for the American League last year.
- 19:27And now this year he's made some errors, he's made mistakes, and
- 19:30the Yankees are losing faith that this guy could be the
- 19:34future when it comes to the shortstop position.
- 19:38But I will say this, Devin Williams, who started off very,
- 19:42very slow for the Yankees, very slow.
- 19:44He was horrible. I think his ERA was at 9 at one
- 19:48point. I think even higher, like 12
- 19:49something. Yeah, I think, I think it got to
- 19:52like 12 1/2 all right. It's definitely different.
- 19:55He's been much better. I think he's below A5 now.
- 19:58Yeah, he's starting to get, you know, into, you know that.
- 20:02Optional pit pitching Rd. You know, method what she was in
- 20:06Milwaukee. Now he's not as good as he was
- 20:08in Milwaukee. OK, obviously not because in
- 20:10Milwaukee he was. He's pitching close to 1 and
- 20:13he's not doing that, but he's giving the Yankees that 8th
- 20:17inning help. Luke Weaver has been such a
- 20:19great optional pitcher in that bullpen where you've moved him
- 20:22from the seventh position, 7th inning to the 8th inning to the
- 20:269th inning and closing for the Yankees over the last two
- 20:29seasons. And he went from a guy that was
- 20:31a starter, now he's been a bullpen specialist.
- 20:34He's been fantastic. The Yankees need to add another
- 20:37arm in that bullpen that's going to help these guys take some
- 20:41pressure off of guys like Devin Williams and Luke Weaver.
- 20:43That's something I think a guy like Brian Cashman has to look
- 20:47at because again, the bullpen is so important, making this
- 20:51playoff front. The Yankees have fallen behind
- 20:54the Blue Jays. I do not believe the Blue Jays
- 20:56are going to keep up this pace. I don't think they're that good.
- 20:59As as a matter of fact, they have players like Vladimir
- 21:02Guerrero got a lot of money, actually $325 million upfront,
- 21:07which is the most I've ever seen a player in professional sports
- 21:09ever get. But nevertheless, he's a guy
- 21:12that's having a good season. But but again, I don't trust
- 21:15their rotation and their bullpen has been iffy over the last two
- 21:18seasons. And they're they have a lot of
- 21:20young pitchers in that rotation. So I expect the Blue Jays to
- 21:24start to make, you know, to make a dip.
- 21:27I do believe that the Yankees should make a run out of a big
- 21:32time hitter in this in this lineup.
- 21:34They need to add another big bat in this lineup, maybe a
- 21:37left-handed bat, maybe a switch hitter.
- 21:40I, I just, I, I think that this this lineup is not enough to
- 21:45make a run for a World Series like they did last year.
- 21:47They got very lucky. Juan Soto got hot in the
- 21:50playoffs against Cleveland and he didn't play very well in the
- 21:53World Series. We all know what Juan Soto did
- 21:55in the in the playoffs, but except in the World Series, I
- 21:59think the Yankees need to at least one or two bats.
- 22:02But Brian Cashman coming out and saying, hey, you know what we're
- 22:05going to do? We're all in at the trade.
- 22:07Dylan, we know he's all in. He's always been all in.
- 22:11The question is, is he going to make the right moves?
- 22:14That is going to put the Yankees in the right position to make
- 22:17that run. Yeah.
- 22:18And also we wonder like he's saying this now, is he trying to
- 22:21accelerate the market faster in order to do that?
- 22:24Is he trying to emphasize, all right, we're going to go in on
- 22:27these positions in specific, which is a good thing that he
- 22:29didn't say specifically that. At the same time, I don't love
- 22:32what him saying about like, all right, we're going to label Jazz
- 22:34Chisholm in just a second baseman and that's going to take
- 22:36away the second base trade market at the trade deadline.
- 22:39Meaning are you only going to go for 3rd baseman in the infield?
- 22:41Are you only thinking about moving someone else to third
- 22:44base? Are you?
- 22:45I think that'll limit the market in that regard of what the
- 22:47company petition is because like we've talked about fish many
- 22:50times, second base has been a weak position this year.
- 22:53So maybe that's what he's trying to emphasize.
- 22:54At the same time, if you want to make some kind of big swing, if
- 22:58I don't know how available he'll get to be for somebody like a
- 23:00Katelle Marte, I think that could be an option for for them
- 23:04to be able to go at. As far as the pitching is
- 23:05concerned, I'm not as good with the late.
- 23:07I'm not as big on the labels as much as you want to have
- 23:09starters, relievers type thing, but you want to have some kind
- 23:11of versatility and pitching depth.
- 23:13That's what wins. Now.
- 23:14It's not as much of those raw 789 bullpens anymore.
- 23:17It's more of those those versatile bullpens that could do
- 23:19so many different things, even ones that aren't ranked as good
- 23:22statistically and still win. So if they can get enough depth
- 23:25in multiple guys from that regard, either in their farm
- 23:28system or within their within the trade deadline where
- 23:31relievers aren't as pricey. What big arms are available?
- 23:33I mean, Michael King is not going to be available because
- 23:35he's not 100% healthy. I thought he was an absolute Sam
- 23:38Dunk for the New York Yankees. He's a guy that came up in the
- 23:41Yankees farm system. He would have been perfect.
- 23:44He was a guy that Brian Cashman didn't want to let go in the
- 23:46Juan Soto trade. He was a guy that I definitely
- 23:49didn't want to let go, but now he's not going to be available
- 23:51because he's not 100% healthy. So where do the Yankees go when
- 23:54it comes to rotation arm help? Do they go after another lefty
- 23:58or do they add a right a righty in this pitching staff?
- 24:02So I there's a lot and Marcus Stroman, Where has Marcus
- 24:07Stroman been all kind? Of stuck in the middle.
- 24:09It's like you can't trust him to be a star.
- 24:11He was always a good first half pitcher.
- 24:14What has happened to him? Yeah, it's kind of weird to
- 24:16trust. Like I think the Yankees, what's
- 24:18what's interesting with them is they could also go after guys
- 24:20that have played in both roles as well, veteran guys on teams
- 24:24that maybe are back end guys. Like 2 teams that come into mind
- 24:27is Kansas City and Texas who have such good pitching Staffs.
- 24:30So maybe they could afford to trade a pitcher or so.
- 24:32And then they their offenses are just so bad this year.
- 24:35So maybe even a one for one swap, something they can
- 24:38consider just to get the Yankees a little more depth in there.
- 24:40Nobody wants Marcus Stroman. That's the problem.
- 24:43Nobody wants Marcus. Stroman.
- 24:48No, I'm, I'm waiting. That's why I said Java.
- 24:50Nobody wants Marcus Stroman. Oh yeah, I mean a salary in
- 24:53that. But I'm going to, I'm going to
- 24:54go back to what Speedy said. Speedy, I'm going to firmly and
- 24:57hardly disagree with you on the versatility of the back end of
- 25:01the bullpen. And I'll tell you why.
- 25:03Because if you don't know, if you're the 6th inning guy, 7th
- 25:05inning guy, 8th inning guy, 9th inning guy, you don't know when
- 25:09to prepare. You can prepare physically, but
- 25:12mentally to be locked in, not knowing if you're coming to set
- 25:15up or you're coming to close is the hardest thing to do because
- 25:19you can't be locked in that long.
- 25:20Do I start warming up in the 4th?
- 25:22Do I keep my routine as the closure guy when I start getting
- 25:25ready in the 6th or how do I do it?
- 25:27So now every day is something different.
- 25:29So I'm going to disagree with you on that because yes, you're
- 25:32going to have guys where they can step in and fill that
- 25:34closure role if somebody's gone three days in a row or 4 out of
- 25:38five. But if you don't have a set
- 25:41standard in that role, I don't think your bullpen can be as
- 25:43good as it is. Nobody knows if Luke is closing,
- 25:46Devon's going to close and we we've seen it bounce back and
- 25:49forth. Look at all the teams that are
- 25:51successful and have one World Series.
- 25:53What was the back end of their bullpen?
- 25:55Guys could step up when they needed it, but each guy, there
- 25:58was a setup guy, there was a get him out of a jam guy and there
- 26:02was a closer. And nine times out of 10, that's
- 26:05the role that they set up in. And so it's.
- 26:07More or less of not as much of A like set roll over the time
- 26:11Jabba. I think it's more of the label
- 26:12that they have at the trade deadline too.
- 26:14Like I look at the Braves of the example, look at how many like 3
- 26:16new relievers they got and none of them were true.
- 26:18Oh, well, I think the trade deadline doesn't matter as far
- 26:21as a label for what the bullpen is.
- 26:23I mean, you know, it's, it's what they they see fit of, of
- 26:28what's the void that they're going to fill is why they're
- 26:31going to and they're going to do what's also available.
- 26:34Yeah. And who's and who they're going
- 26:36to get rid of. Who do they want?
- 26:37And you know, a lot of it too is, is are they going to sell
- 26:42and be like, OK, we need to get something back for these big
- 26:46league ready guys. How much are you willing to give
- 26:48up? How much are you willing to move
- 26:50shake? How much salary are you willing
- 26:52to take on what's left of a salary left of a year's of a
- 26:56contract? Like, there's so much that goes
- 26:58into it and he can say whatever he wants to say.
- 27:01He says it every year what they do.
- 27:02Last year they got a reliever that nobody knew the hell he
- 27:05was. And he's like, Yep, we got
- 27:06another reliever. No, you didn't do anything.
- 27:09And so he talks all this mess every year.
- 27:12Hal's going to come down to numbers.
- 27:13Cash is going to say he did something and all in like, Oh
- 27:17yeah, what he did with DJDJ. Had.
- 27:20Played his balls off, he gave everything.
- 27:22He's he was. So hurt you guys have no idea.
- 27:25I got a lot of information from the inside about like how he,
- 27:30like, it wasn't for lack of effort of trying to get back,
- 27:33like he just had put himself through the wringer and just he
- 27:36couldn't physically do it anymore.
- 27:38And he gave everything he got. And yeah, he was upset, but I
- 27:43wouldn't be too upset. You're going home still making
- 27:4422 million. So he's going to be fine.
- 27:47Jabba. Jabba.
- 27:48The guy that I want to see get called up is Spencer Jones.
- 27:51He's been very, very hot right now the last three weeks he's
- 27:54been hot. He's been called up from AA to
- 27:57triple AI. Think he's batting 375 in the
- 28:00last 2 1/2 weeks. He's been as hot as any Yankee
- 28:04in their farm system when it comes to bats.
- 28:05Now, a lot of people think that they're going to wait at least
- 28:09one more year to call this kid up.
- 28:10But if if he's hitting like that in AAA, why not see what the kid
- 28:14has in in a week or two and and see what he could do in the
- 28:18lineup, Maybe adding him to a lineup, maybe, you know, a
- 28:21double headed game on a weekend. See what this guy could do in
- 28:24the outfield. See what he could do as A5 tool
- 28:27player. Now they say he's got tremendous
- 28:29speed, he's got tremendous power.
- 28:31He's he, I did read that he's fixed, fixed the speed of his
- 28:35bat in the offseason. I, I think his stance is a
- 28:39little different than it was last year.
- 28:40So it it's definitely helped him when it comes to the plate.
- 28:44Now, obviously he's still very young.
- 28:46He's 2223 years old and the Yankees.
- 28:49So if you remember Aaron Judge, you didn't see Aaron Judge until
- 28:52what, 2425 years old until they called him up in the middle of
- 28:56the season. And then his 20 Aaron Judge went
- 29:00to college too. Yes, he did.
- 29:01And 25 at 25, Aaron Judge won the rookie of the year and had
- 29:06that unbelievable season. He was almost up for an MVP if
- 29:09it wasn't for Altuve if you remember.
- 29:11That cheating Altuve. Yeah, so I again, I, I'm not
- 29:15saying Spencer Jones is Aaron Judge, but what the Yankees
- 29:18think that this kid could be, could be the future of this
- 29:22outfield when Aaron Judge has to step it, step down or give
- 29:25somebody the reign for the future when it comes to power or
- 29:30a superstar that the Yankees are going to be calling up in the
- 29:32future. I can see, yeah, I can see why
- 29:36they would do it. I can see why they wouldn't.
- 29:39It's a very sample size of what he's done in AAA and I can see
- 29:45why because everybody's excited about it and he's obviously
- 29:48shown and made the adjustment. But then it's OK.
- 29:51Now what happens? You bring him up and he
- 29:53absolutely shits the bed and goes O for 35.
- 29:57Now did you, did you make him worse or did you make him
- 29:59better? And the development side of it
- 30:01is, is it, is it sexy to bring him up because is it going to
- 30:05put butts in seats? Yeah.
- 30:07But as much as they love him right now in Tripoli, he goes O
- 30:10for 30 and makes 2 airs in the outfield.
- 30:12We're going to be having a different conversation.
- 30:14Was that the right movement? But Jabba, what happens if if
- 30:16he's a piece that the Yankees are looking to trade to add
- 30:19another big bat, You call him up, he gets a little hot, He
- 30:23goes up to the plate maybe 10 times and gets what, two home
- 30:26runs out of 10/10 at bats? Then you have something to oh,
- 30:30we got a guy that's a future superstar.
- 30:32Everybody, everybody already knows what he's going to do.
- 30:34Doing it in the big leagues and say they called him up today in
- 30:37four games isn't going to raise his stock or lessen his stock.
- 30:41They're already projecting him and that's all it is, is
- 30:44projections until he actually goes and proves it.
- 30:46Yeah. Volpe was supposed to be the
- 30:47next Derek Jeter. We he's going to be a career 220
- 30:50hitter. Yeah.
- 30:51So we we know what you're going to get.
- 30:52So I could see why we do it. I I would be excited to see him.
- 30:55Like, it's nice that, you know, they they cover some of these
- 30:59minor league games and we get to watch them for free.
- 31:01Like when Skeens was in the minor leagues and some of these
- 31:03other young big prospects. I kind of I kind of relate him
- 31:06to CAG Leone from Kansas City and and kind of how the rise and
- 31:12the stature left-handed, you know, big prospect type of deal
- 31:16and keg learn just hit like a 490 foot Homer the other day.
- 31:19So his is translated very well. So I could see it from both
- 31:23sides. It's just I don't know the kid
- 31:26personally. So I don't know how he would
- 31:28handle that failure of coming up.
- 31:31So I'm reading, I'm reading numbers right now what he's
- 31:33doing in AAA. Now going going into the season
- 31:37in AA, he had sixteen home runs in 49 AA games this season.
- 31:43And but since he's been called up to AAA, he's cranked 5 bombs
- 31:47and is in his first 10 contest. When you tack on the three
- 31:52double S and eight walks, he's got a 1.315 OPS right now in
- 31:58AAA. He's the hottest hitter right
- 32:00now in AAA in baseball. And, and again, it's still such
- 32:04a short sample size, but the Yankees need some kind of spark.
- 32:08They need some kind of spark in that maybe calling him up a week
- 32:12or two weeks. Then you have something.
- 32:14If he gets a little hot up here, nobody's seen him.
- 32:17Nobody's real. None of these starters have
- 32:18actually seen him at the plate and he gets hot.
- 32:21Then the Yankees have something if they want to add a big bat
- 32:24and they have somebody out there they're interested in, oh, we
- 32:26have Spencer Jones. We'll trade you Spencer Jones
- 32:29for that bat or this bat or add Spencer Jones in a in a trade
- 32:33where you can add a pitcher or a bullpen bullpen pitcher and a
- 32:37hitter to that that that I disagree completely.
- 32:41Errol like if they bring him up and he sucks like Jack Hagley
- 32:44owns hit him 151. He was brought up.
- 32:47He's not helping that team win. He has the power.
- 32:49We've seen it every once in a while.
- 32:51He's running into them and crushing them.
- 32:53And so we know the talents there.
- 32:54He's not ready. Spencer Jones is striking out
- 32:5733% of the time. So was Aaron Judge.
- 33:00So was. No, he wasn't.
- 33:01Aaron Judge was under 30. Aaron Judge was striking out a
- 33:04lot. When he got called up, he was at
- 33:0637 percent, 37%. It doesn't matter your goal.
- 33:10It does. Yeah, OK, it does.
- 33:12It does. There's a certain point you
- 33:14can't be above. And if you're over 30 something
- 33:17percent, most of those guys don't make it in Major League
- 33:20Baseball. This is the Yankees.
- 33:21Judge is like 22. Well, 23 right now.
- 33:23I don't care. The Yankees need a spark, and
- 33:25they're not. Well, they should because
- 33:27doesn't mean anything that he's doing anything there because
- 33:29there's nowhere to play him. What do you bring him up?
- 33:31The name is what are you going to play them?
- 33:32They do where what is he doing? Where what is Anthony Volpe
- 33:35doing? He but that's irrelevant has
- 33:37nothing to do with this. What did they call this?
- 33:40It makes no sense whatever trade Spencer Jones.
- 33:42Well, as you know the Yankees hype their prospects.
- 33:45Spencer Jones isn't even a top 100 prospect in baseball hyping
- 33:49that he can trade him while he's got the name recognition and
- 33:52getting some bombs. His his bad BIP right now in AAA
- 33:56is 476. That's called not unsustainable.
- 33:59He's not going to be that good regular bad.
- 34:01That's 300. So he's not going to hit this
- 34:04one. There's no possible way with you
- 34:05take advantage now with you is all you do is look, I'm sorry.
- 34:09I make too much sense. No, you don't.
- 34:11You look at you don't know any of these terms.
- 34:14You refuse to listen to us and we teach them to you.
- 34:15I don't have to. I don't have to know these Well,
- 34:18you would know that he's not ready if you did well good.
- 34:20And and if Spencer Jones comes back comes up and he actually
- 34:23they would have more value trading him as a AAA player than
- 34:26as a major. I disagree.
- 34:27That's a fact. Well, I disagree because the
- 34:29Yankees have done this many, many times.
- 34:31They've called people up, they've called players up, and
- 34:34some of them have worked and some of that haven't.
- 34:36I still think Luis Savarino, Bellinger, Judge, Dominguez.
- 34:40You have Stanton, you have Ben Rice.
- 34:42Where is he going to go in the lineup?
- 34:44Where do you play him? He's not going to get regular at
- 34:46bats. It makes no sense to bring him
- 34:50up either trading him or Dominguez.
- 34:52It's the only way it works. And Dominguez is playing great
- 34:55right now. Got to move, so trade him for
- 34:59OK, so we got to get out of this segment because we're running
- 35:01out of time. But real quick and job, you can
- 35:03comment on it too. The position that we keep
- 35:05hearing is third base, and the guy we keep hearing is Eugenio
- 35:08Suarez. He's third base.
- 35:10He's got 29 home runs for the Diamondbacks.
- 35:12They're not going anywhere this year.
- 35:14He's an expiring contract, which means you wouldn't need to give
- 35:17up the whole farm for him. You give him like a a second
- 35:20rate prospect to the Diamondbacks and now you have a
- 35:24real power hitter in that lineup.
- 35:26He's got a lot of swing and miss as well, but he's having a great
- 35:29last couple of seasons. I would go for him right now.
- 35:32It would make a ton of sense and then they stabilize that lineup.
- 35:35It makes a ton. Doesn't work out for voltages.
- 35:37It makes a ton of sense. That's why.
- 35:40Well, who would you rather have than the guy who's having an old
- 35:42first season? Ladies and gentlemen, it's it's
- 35:44because what Fish wants. If Fish wants it, it makes a lot
- 35:46of sense. Who do you want?
- 35:47It's a lot of sense. Who do you want?
- 35:49Thanks a lot. You want to put Spencer Jones in
- 35:523rd Fish? No, that's not what I'm saying.
- 35:53If Spencer Jones is hitting right now and we could get a
- 35:56spark and he can give a spark to the Yankees lineup right now and
- 36:00I think that he is capable of doing that.
- 36:03The Yankees should call him up and see what he could do for a
- 36:05week or play 3 outs. It doesn't it doesn't matter if
- 36:08they if he's not, if he's not doing well, send them back down.
- 36:11It's not going to just OK, so, so, so who do you?
- 36:14Who do you? Put him in for.
- 36:15I don't right now, I'm not even looking at that.
- 36:17I'm looking at trade him to the Diamondbacks for Suarez and
- 36:21Merrill Kelly. Merrill Kelly is a pitcher
- 36:23available as well. He's like 36 or 37.
- 36:26He's he's got only got a year or so left on his deal.
- 36:29He would make a lot of sense as well.
- 36:32He's a very good pitcher. He's about a strikeout in
- 36:34inning, doesn't throw really hard, but he's another one of
- 36:37those guys I know speedy. You were saying the Mets are
- 36:38looking at him. I would want them to, yes.
- 36:41I don't know who's available right now when we know those are
- 36:44the guys, Andy Alcantara after the All Star, All Star game.
- 36:49They're going to be teams that probably don't think they have
- 36:51any chance of making the playoffs where they're going to
- 36:53open up their rosters and say, OK, we got this guy, we got that
- 36:57guy. This is who we're offering.
- 36:58I don't think yet you're going to see teams, you know, on the
- 37:02bottom of those lists to saying, OK, we're this guy's available.
- 37:05That's guy. That guy's available, I think
- 37:07after the All Star game and, and the trade deadline is what, 2
- 37:11weeks after the All Star game, which is about what, 3 weeks,
- 37:14the end of the month, last day of the month.
- 37:15So, so I expect in a week's time, we're going to hear that
- 37:18there are teams that are going to be willing to trade this guy,
- 37:21that guy or maybe even prospects that they like in their farm
- 37:24system that they believe are going to be really good players
- 37:26in the future. And if I were the Yankees right
- 37:28now, I'd start looking at their future.
- 37:31And, and again, the Yankees are, even though they have young
- 37:34players, they're more older than they were, are younger.
- 37:38They have a lot of veterans, guys that have been in the
- 37:40league for a significant amount of time.
- 37:42Who is their future? What do they have to lean on in
- 37:46the future after Aaron Judge is gone?
- 37:48That's the question. Is Spencer Jones the guy?
- 37:50I don't know if the Yankees believe that he is.
- 37:52And if the Yankees believe that he is, they got up, they got to
- 37:55hide them and and they got to say, you know what?
- 37:57This guy is untouchable. I remember last year Brian
- 38:00Cashman had two guys. He said we're not, we're not
- 38:02trading them. There's no way we're trading
- 38:04them no matter what you give us. And he's one of those guys.
- 38:08Is he a tradable piece or easy non touchable?
- 38:11That's the question I want to know for Brian Cashman and if
- 38:14he's going to go out there and speak about how open he is to
- 38:17make trades at the trade downline.
- 38:19Well, be open and stop beating around the Bush, which I like.
- 38:22I say over the last couple of years, Brian Cashman has been he
- 38:26beats around the Bush and he doesn't get to the answers that
- 38:29we're asking him, and that's who's available and who's not.
- 38:33Quickly, before we move on, I like this one from CT Cars, Seth
- 38:36Lugo and Michael Garcia from the Royals.
- 38:38Lugo's having a very good year 2.67 ERA and Garcia is a 25 year
- 38:42old who played both 2nd and 3rd. 300 hitter that could steal
- 38:45bases. After Tuesday's game, Juan Soto
- 38:48responded in an arrogant way to a reporter asking if he would
- 38:53have liked to make the All Star team.
- 38:56When the reporter asked if he wanted to be on the team or Soto
- 38:59responded what do you think team?
- 39:02The reporter responded by saying how other players would like a
- 39:08vacation and Soto made a face at him.
- 39:10Soto was also emphasizing how he wouldn't get to get the All Star
- 39:17game bonus since he didn't make the team, calling it a lot of
- 39:21money left on the table. Players who make an All Star
- 39:24team get 20,000 each, but a clause in Soto's contract gives
- 39:30him an extra 100,000 1000. Soto is making 61 million this
- 39:35season, which is 289,000 per game and is in in his first year
- 39:42of a record setting 15 year, $765 million contract.
- 39:46Soto has made an All Star team just four times in his
- 39:51eight-year stint in the MLB. Juan Soda's a bitch, OK?
- 39:57He's a crybaby, and that's what he is.
- 40:00And This is why, after you hear all these injuries, that Juan
- 40:05Soto is not going to be a part of that roster.
- 40:09The problem right now with guys like Juan Soto is he thinks he's
- 40:13better than he is. He really does.
- 40:15He thinks he's a bigger and better player than Aaron Judges.
- 40:20Now we all know that's not true. And in his heart of hearts
- 40:24before, as the season was prolonging and they were asking
- 40:27questions about Pete Alonso and they were comparing contrasting
- 40:31Pete Alonso to Aaron Judge. He said, I was playing behind
- 40:34the best player or playing in front of the best player in
- 40:36baseball. And now I'm playing against this
- 40:38guy. Now all of a sudden, Pete Alonso
- 40:40is having a great season and he signed his three-year extension
- 40:44and it could be up for free agency if he opts out of the
- 40:47contract in the offseason. And he's one of the hottest
- 40:49hitters in baseball and actually made the All Star team as a
- 40:51reserve. He thinks, hey, you know what,
- 40:54if Pete Alonso made the team, why shouldn't I?
- 40:57I'm the hottest hitter in baseball right now in the last 2
- 41:001/2 weeks. Guess what, Juan, in the first
- 41:03month and a half, you were one of the worst hitters in baseball
- 41:06and you were batting at one point, 2/20.
- 41:10At one point you were absolutely putrid.
- 41:12Now all of a sudden you got hot, you're bad, got hot.
- 41:14You're hitting home runs and you're hitting RB is and you
- 41:17should make the team over this guy, that guy and this guy.
- 41:20Come on. The fact is right now he should
- 41:23be worried about the Mets making the playoffs, making a run in
- 41:26the second-half of the season, not worrying about $100,000.
- 41:29If you remember before the season started with Beatty, he
- 41:33opened up his pockets because he wanted Beatty's number to buy
- 41:36him a nice beautiful truck. Do you remember that he spent
- 41:39like $55,000 for Beatty because he wanted to make sure he got
- 41:44his number. Now all of a sudden, $100,000 is
- 41:47a lot of money. This guy makes $289,000 per game
- 41:51and he's crying about 100K. Seriously, there are a lot more
- 41:54desperate people right now in the majors, especially some of
- 41:57these young guys. They're not even making anywhere
- 41:59close to that. Ronald Lacuna signed, what was
- 42:02it a 10 year, $100 million contract.
- 42:05What was it five years ago? He's making 10 million a year.
- 42:10And you want to know something? If you would ask me right now,
- 42:12who would I rather, Ronald Lacuna or Juan Soto?
- 42:15I'm taking Ronald Lacuna in a heartbeat.
- 42:18It's not even an argument. I think anybody, when you watch
- 42:21Ronald Lacuna at the that at the plate and what he could do when
- 42:25he is healthy in the outfield, I don't think Juan Soto even
- 42:28understands what a star is. Now, I'm not saying that Juan
- 42:32Soto isn't special. I'm not saying that he can't hit
- 42:34in the clutch. I'm not saying Juan Soto hasn't
- 42:37won a World Series with the Nationals at 19 years old.
- 42:40What I'm saying is he thinks he's better than he is.
- 42:43He thinks that he's a top three player.
- 42:46Let's be honest, he's not. Now you can argue he's a top
- 42:49six, top seven player, but there are other players right now in
- 42:52great seasons and a lot of young players coming up that we're
- 42:55watching right in front of our eyes become stars.
- 42:58And one of them, Wood over there with the Nationals, has 23 home
- 43:02runs and 69 RB. Is these guys are young, 22
- 43:06years old. One, you're 27 now.
- 43:09I'm not saying you're old, but you're getting there at that age
- 43:12where you're going to be a bona fide DH.
- 43:14And he's coming out there and saying he should be a starter,
- 43:17he should be a reserve player. Dude, you are not.
- 43:21You were not good enough in the beginning of the season.
- 43:23I'm not saying you're not good enough in the second-half and
- 43:26you might not be good enough in the second-half.
- 43:27It's just the facts are statistics.
- 43:30And as Fish says, I don't understand statistics.
- 43:34I understand what the line says and the line tells me what is he
- 43:38batting right now, 26265 And I, I don't know, give me the number
- 43:43right now. What is Juan Soto hitting as far
- 43:45as average? Speedy.
- 43:46Let's go type it up. Type it up, Speedy.
- 43:49Mr. Producer, What is he batting?
- 43:51266. 266 So he's batting 266. Let me ask you guys a question.
- 43:57A bona fide star who's making $765 million, Sixty, 1,000,000 a
- 44:03year. Do you think at 266 he should be
- 44:08making the All Star team? Speedy answer that question, not
- 44:11on someone. I'm asking if you're seeing the
- 44:13batting average right now at 266, do you think he should make
- 44:17the but make the All Star team over the players in front of
- 44:19him? Tatis, he's having a better.
- 44:21That's not what I'm asking you. That's the only one.
- 44:23That's not what I'm asking you and Tatis is the again, they got
- 44:27to pick one player from each team to make the All Star team.
- 44:31And by the way, Machado is just a star.
- 44:33Machado should make it every year because he's notified the
- 44:36best third baseman. You know baseball.
- 44:38Machado definitely deserved it, and the five other outfielders
- 44:41above him definitely deserved it too.
- 44:42Obviously Acuna got the starter vote over James Wood, which
- 44:45maybe he doesn't get, but but that's the game's in Atlanta so
- 44:48that's fine. Like it's the same thing I
- 44:49mentioned with Freeman over Alonzo.
- 44:51Like you're going to tell me that Ronald Acuna is not after
- 44:53coming back, he's not playing. Better he's been great he's.
- 44:56Playing better than Juanza, no. No, no, I'm saying James Wood.
- 44:58James Woods, I think. James Wood is a young player.
- 45:00Everybody wants to see this young kid in an All Star game.
- 45:03That's what you want to see. You want to see what this guy
- 45:05could do. It's center stage with millions
- 45:08of people watching when it's the number one thing when it comes
- 45:11to sports on television. That's what everybody wants to
- 45:13see. You want to see the Next up and
- 45:15coming Aaron Judge at the plate who's 6 foot 7, who's 280 lbs,
- 45:21who's batting and smacking the ball, you know, 450 feet.
- 45:25That's what you want to see. You don't want to see Juan Soto
- 45:28at the at the plate because he's not getting a hit, crying or
- 45:31making his little wave or pointing his finger because he's
- 45:34not hitting home runs. I think it's just, it's very
- 45:37bitch like. And I say this because Juan Soto
- 45:40has always been this crybaby type type of player.
- 45:43Remember when the Mets got Juan Soto, he went up there and he
- 45:47answered questions and he said, well, I, I went to the team that
- 45:50I think has a better chance of winning.
- 45:52And he he said it. So emphasis, you know, emphasis
- 45:55what, what's the word emphatically there it is
- 45:57emphatically saying that this is the team.
- 46:00This is this team has the better chance of winning a
- 46:02championship. When Aaron Judge made a face
- 46:04when the press came to him at spring training and said that,
- 46:07he says, well, I don't know what Juan say.
- 46:09I mean, Juan's a great player, but he's out of his mind pretty
- 46:12much. That's what Aaron Judd said.
- 46:14You're not going to go out there and throw a team under the bus
- 46:17that's made the playoffs convincingly.
- 46:19Convincingly for how many years? Who's had a winning, winning
- 46:24roster for what, 33 years, 34 years?
- 46:28And a Mets team that's won a World Series since 1986?
- 46:31I'm not going to brag about that.
- 46:33Who's made one, One World Series?
- 46:36Yes, One World Series since 1986.
- 46:38You're going to brag about that? I mean, seriously, Juan Soto
- 46:42cannot sell anything. And what he has had to say over
- 46:45the last couple of weeks, and as a matter of fact, I would, if I
- 46:48was Juan Soto, I'd take my nice $61 million and go out and buy
- 46:53myself an island. Go out there to an island
- 46:56somewhere in Tahiti or of that magnitude and go buy himself a
- 47:01yacht and hang out over there with the Sharks with his family.
- 47:05Because he was crying that the Yankees didn't treat his family
- 47:08very right over there with the organization, especially in the
- 47:11playoffs. Because the Yankees wouldn't let
- 47:12him on the field when they were winning, when they won when I
- 47:15think it gets Cleveland, they wouldn't let him on the on the
- 47:17field and they were celebrating. I I just think all Juan Soto
- 47:20cares about is himself. He's a me player.
- 47:22He's not a tight team player. And that's what it's showing
- 47:25right now. He's not showing you that.
- 47:27Oh, it's all about the Mets. It's all about the organization.
- 47:30It's all about me. Why am I not making $100,000?
- 47:33Why am I not playing the All Star game?
- 47:36Why am not I not respected for the season that I'm having,
- 47:39especially over the last couple of weeks?
- 47:41That is what I see. What?
- 47:42Juan Soto? It's me, me, me and nobody else.
- 47:46Yeah, it makes no sense to bitch about 100, $20,000 just because
- 47:49you didn't get the clause in your contract.
- 47:50Your contract has 14 more years. You make some All Star game
- 47:52appearances, you'll accumulate all that.
- 47:54That's like point OO 2% of like what you're making per game or
- 47:59per season, nevertheless per game where you're making 289,000
- 48:02and then you're lashing out at a reporter for just asking that
- 48:05question where, yeah, if you're a snub, if you're a, if you're a
- 48:08guy that's a borderline All Star, Yeah, you're going to be
- 48:09asked that question. So you're going to lash out at
- 48:11the reporter. So it seemed a little bit, you
- 48:13know, like you said, arrogant. It seems like an ego trip that
- 48:16you probably have to expect a little bit with somebody that
- 48:19good, but you were. That good?
- 48:21He's batting 266. Let's get his batting average to
- 48:25300. Do what Aaron Judge is doing,
- 48:27then you could say that Good. All right, I'm so tired of
- 48:30hearing Juan Soto try to compare himself to Otani and Aaron
- 48:34Judge. He is nowhere close to any one
- 48:36of those guys and he needs to stop.
- 48:38He's making more money than those guys.
- 48:40He's making more money an average every single year than
- 48:43Otani. Otani is a better player than
- 48:45him. That's just a fact.
- 48:47Why is he coming out there and trying to compare him, to
- 48:50compare himself to the two best players in all the baseball?
- 48:53The face is a baseball. He's not.
- 48:55Stop crying about it. It's also a very loaded position
- 48:58too when you look at the National League outfield
- 49:00starters. We talked about Acuna and James
- 49:01Wood already. The two Cubs guys obviously are
- 49:03going to get in over Soto as well too.
- 49:05So just the circumstances in general, you're not really
- 49:07judging the the top 25 total baseball players because like we
- 49:11were saying, would all these second baseman, all these other
- 49:13relievers or stuff make it all the time too is another
- 49:15question. But it definitely looks bad and
- 49:17immature the way. He did it.
- 49:20Yeah. It's he just keeps digging
- 49:22himself a bigger hole for people like to not like him.
- 49:25And it just it doesn't make sense.
- 49:28And for me, I'm just like, OK, you made the decision that you
- 49:32made, OK. You came out and said it's
- 49:34different hitting not having Aaron Judge behind you.
- 49:37So you basically, you just took a good old Tommy on Pete Alonzo.
- 49:41Did he ever And and then, you know, you come and say this like
- 49:45nobody's feeling sorry for you, dude, like 100 grand.
- 49:49Yeah, OK, Nobody nobody's feeling sorry.
- 49:52And I I just there's so many other ways.
- 49:55And as you as we talked about handling the media early on the
- 49:59show, it's just understand like what position you're in.
- 50:05Yes, you got off to a slow start.
- 50:07You're doing what you normally do and that's what type of
- 50:11player you are like. And just embrace.
- 50:13It you got, you got what you wanted, you got your money.
- 50:16So nobody really is going to care or feel bad for you.
- 50:21Like, oh, I'm leaving money on the table.
- 50:23Yeah, but some people it takes them 3-4 years to make 100 grand
- 50:28and you do that in like 4 innings.
- 50:30So nobody's going to feel bad for you.
- 50:32And he just, he keeps digging himself bigger holes.
- 50:36And I, I get like, you know, people's comments, Well, he's,
- 50:39you know, one of the best in yeah, he's the second highest
- 50:42OPS or in the 9 hundreds or whatever.
- 50:45And I get that's a part of it too.
- 50:47But there's so many guys literally that deserve it that
- 50:53aren't the name. And I think he's like trying to
- 50:55rely on his name so much and the fact that he signed this crazy
- 50:59deal. But I mean, PCA just literally
- 51:02was the fastest of 25 and 25 over like Hall of Farmers.
- 51:06And he did it in 93 games. The fastest to do it before was
- 51:09in 95 games. And so it's just those guys that
- 51:13are putting together full season, then doing things that
- 51:17he's not doing. And yeah, everybody's going to
- 51:19be like, well, Cunha doesn't have the amount of the bats, but
- 51:22in the time that he's done it, he's done more than Soto's done.
- 51:26And that's the fan vote too. And I think that's part of too
- 51:31why, you know, when it comes to the like, there's a lot of fans
- 51:34that don't feel sorry for you, so they're not going to vote for
- 51:36you. And that's just, that's the
- 51:38nature of the beast. So if he was smarter, anybody in
- 51:40his damn camp or whatever he wants to call it, they just need
- 51:44to tell him to shut up. Well, I don't think anybody's
- 51:47going to tell him to shut up because nobody controls Juan
- 51:49Soto but Juan Soto. And I think Juan Soto for years,
- 51:53and I'm not even speaking about when he was with the Yankees.
- 51:56How about with the Padres? How many times did?
- 51:58We was, really. Bad.
- 51:59I mean, that was embarrassing, what he did in the dugout with
- 52:02Machado and Tatis. Remember that he.
- 52:04Threw their team culture under the bus.
- 52:06I mean, seriously, that outburst that he had over there, the guy
- 52:09just has outburst. How could you go out there and
- 52:13do the things that you have done such an early part of your
- 52:16career and be a star and, and then go out there from team to
- 52:20team and say, well, you know what?
- 52:21I'm I'm Juan Soto. You're I don't care if you're
- 52:23Manny Machado. I don't care if you're Fernando
- 52:25duties. I'm Juan Soto.
- 52:27I'm I'm the best player in baseball.
- 52:30I'm the best Dominican in baseball.
- 52:32Meanwhile, at that time, he was playing with two very talented
- 52:36Spanish players. I mean, Tatis, you could say he
- 52:39cheated. Whatever you want to say after
- 52:41that, after the fact, he's still playing very good baseball.
- 52:45And Manny Machado, come on man, that guy snapped his leg,
- 52:48remember that snapped his leg and came back and he's still one
- 52:52of the best players in the league.
- 52:53You can argue he's a top ten player in the league with his
- 52:57bat and and the defensive style of game he has.
- 53:00Who's better at third base than Manny Machado?
- 53:03Really. How many are in?
- 53:04The outfield than Tatis, he was a shortstop and then he gets
- 53:07hurt and then and all of a sudden he's playing a platinum
- 53:09glove outfield. I mean, what is Juan Soto in the
- 53:11outfield? Is he give me a break.
- 53:13He's butrid. I've seen over and over again
- 53:16this year with the Mets make blunters.
- 53:18His numbers got to be below like he's got to be below average.
- 53:21I don't I don't know the advanced metric on how they
- 53:25based upon I get, you know, run saved or whatever, but I think
- 53:29he's the. High 30s percentile outfielder.
- 53:32Yeah, makes sense. You can't sit here today and
- 53:36actually believe that Juan Soto actually believes he's he's
- 53:40better than Aaron Judge or believes he's better than Shay
- 53:43Ohtani. He's not.
- 53:44And if he does believe that whatever he's sipping or he's
- 53:47hanging out with little Wayne and smoking a Dutch, well, he
- 53:51could, he should buy him a couple, a couple of Oz and smoke
- 53:55a couple of more times because he must be on something.
- 53:58I may be drinking some dessert with him.
- 54:00I I have no idea what Juan Soto actually believes, but if he
- 54:04believes that, then he's really that crazy.
- 54:06But nevertheless, I'm sitting here today and wondering why
- 54:11Juan Soda would go up and talk to the New York press as we
- 54:14mentioned Mike Brown and not have APR person right next to
- 54:18him trying to control his temper.
- 54:21He has a bad temper. And when somebody asks him a
- 54:24silly question, he answers it with a silly statement and the
- 54:28fact that nobody knows how to control him.
- 54:30Why isn't a billionaire? You know what I'm talking about,
- 54:33Mr. Uncle Stevie actually reaching out to Juan Soto.
- 54:37Now, we all know what happened at that press conference when
- 54:39the the Mets signed him and he said what he said about the
- 54:42Yankees. If I was Steve Cohen, I'm
- 54:44reaching out to Juan and saying don't do that.
- 54:47Don't bring up the Yankees. You're a Met.
- 54:48I don't want to hear any more Yankees out of your mouth.
- 54:51But that's the problem with Juan Soto.
- 54:53He doesn't hold back on what he believes and watch.
- 54:56I know he's close with Francisco Lindor.
- 54:59If anything happens in the second-half, anything happens in
- 55:02the second-half, what do you think Juan Soto's going to do?
- 55:05You think he's going to take responsibility or is he going to
- 55:07throw somebody onto the bus? And who's the leader right now
- 55:10for the New York Mets? Francisco Lindor?
- 55:12So what are you guys going to actually be surprised if you're
- 55:17hearing something go on in a dugout?
- 55:19Because he did it against Manny Machado, which him and Manny
- 55:21Machado will quote, UN quote, brothers.
- 55:24They threw Manny Machado under the bus.
- 55:26He threw Fernando Titis on the bus with their stupid handshakes
- 55:30that they they have. It's ridiculous.
- 55:33And I'm going to be blunt with Juan Soto, if he doesn't know
- 55:36how to control his mouth, don't say anything.
- 55:39You're going to make yourself look like a spectator, not a
- 55:43leader, a spectator. And if you look at his as a
- 55:45spectator, players on your team are not going to want to be
- 55:48around you. They're not even going to want
- 55:50to hang out with you after the games quickly.
- 55:52Before we move on, to put it in perspective how bad the Padres
- 55:55thing got, Errol and I both picked him to go to the world.
- 55:57Series here. In 2023 and then in August, we
- 56:00had a story coming out throwing the entire brass of the Padres
- 56:03team culture, from the players to the ownership on the.
- 56:05Embarrassing, absolutely embarrassing.
- 56:07And Manny Machado, I got to give Manny Machado a lot of credit
- 56:10because Manny Machado could have came out and threw Juan Soto
- 56:13under the bus. But he said pretty much said
- 56:16stop being a bitch. He he said it in layman's terms.
- 56:19You're you're, you're a grown up.
- 56:21Act like a grown up, act like a leader, don't act like a bitch.
- 56:24And I and I love that about and that's why I would love Manny
- 56:27Machado on the Yankees. I would like, that's never going
- 56:29to happen, but I would love to see Manny play for the Yankees
- 56:32because he is, he's fit to be a Yankee.
- 56:34He always wanted, he grew up a Yankee fan and the Yankees were
- 56:38interested in when he when he was when he was available.
- 56:41But it just didn't happen for the New York Yankees.
- 56:43They decided to go elsewhere as Bryce Harper wanted to be a
- 56:46Yankee and they decided to go elsewhere as well.
- 56:49All right, let's go to the deuce of the day.
- 56:52The deuce of the day you log not a log.
- 56:56I don't have a log but. Oh, right, Our deuce of the day
- 57:06is very simple and this is going to be the fight of the century.
- 57:10As Jake Paul has come out and said, it's going to put women's
- 57:14box in all the way to the top. As on Friday on Netflix, the
- 57:20first women's main event in Netflix history will be Katie
- 57:25Taylor and Amanda Serrano. And this is going to be a fight
- 57:30that's going going to end all arguments as all both of them
- 57:35have been back and forth 11 after the other.
- 57:38This is their third fight. This is going to be exciting.
- 57:41This is something at Madison Square Garden.
- 57:43Madison Square Garden is promoting Jake Paul.
- 57:46The only thing I don't like about this fight is Jake Paul is
- 57:49behind me. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the
- 57:51one and only Jake Paul is behind this whole conversation.
- 57:55He has signed practically every single woman boxer.
- 57:58He's now signing mixed martial artist under his MVP brand and I
- 58:03do respect him for that. What I don't respect is he's
- 58:06taking shots out of all these professional organizations from
- 58:10boxing, from the WBA, from the WBO to the UFC.
- 58:14And I don't think Dana White is a great president and well was
- 58:19at one point an owner. The problem right now lies that
- 58:22boxing has fallen apart when it comes to promotion because guys
- 58:27like Oscar De la Hoyer or and some of these big name promoters
- 58:30have. Jake Paul is putting money in
- 58:33these fighters pockets. The only thing that Jake Paul is
- 58:35doing that's affecting what this fight is going to be is he's
- 58:38center stage. Nobody cares about what Kelly,
- 58:41Katie Taylor has said about this fight or Amanda Serrano.
- 58:44No, they care about what Jake Paul has to say every single
- 58:48press conference they've had coming up to Friday's fight.
- 58:52That's the problem right now. Now I think these two fighters
- 58:55are sensational. The two fights that we saw,
- 58:57especially on the Mike Tyson card, they're too fantastic,
- 59:01fantastic, fantastic fighters. This is going to be a brawl all
- 59:05the way to the end. I expect blood.
- 59:07I expect championship boxing all the way through.
- 59:10Congratulations to Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, I hope it
- 59:13brings in a tremendous amount of money.
- 59:15But who's it going into the pockets?
- 59:17Is it going into Jake Paul's pockets or is it going into
- 59:20Katie Taylor's or Amanda Serrano?
- 59:22Only time will tell, ladies and gentlemen.
- 59:24So that, ladies and gentlemen, is my dues of the day.
- 59:27And ladies and gentlemen, he's never been on our show.
- 59:29He's been waiting calmly and carefully in our backstage.
- 59:33When we come back, our first guest of the show, Yes.
- 59:36We don't have 1:00 tonight. We have two yes.
- 59:39And my friend Nathan, RPR guy, reached out to us and said we
- 59:43got a special guest and I'm very excited to have him on.
- 59:46We will be talking to Matthew Danish.
- 59:49Yes. If you don't know who he is,
- 59:51he's a fan who won third place at Fanatic Fest.
- 59:56Yes, Tom Brady had this back and forth.
- 59:59Who's going to do this and who's going to beat me at that?
- 1:00:01Well, ladies and gentlemen, Matthew was one of the winners.
- 1:00:04He came in 3rd place, made 250K from it, and we're going to have
- 1:00:08him on the show when we come back.
- 1:00:10But first, our sports minute with the fish.
- 1:00:15This is the. Jabba and the mouth.
- 1:00:17Sports Minute How's it going? Everybody, Aaron.
- 1:00:22Fishman here with your sportsman again.
- 1:00:24Again to some baseball scores tonight, but first a few
- 1:00:27stories. Scary news out of Wisconsin as
- 1:00:30former Olympic wrestler and MMA fighter Ben Askren announced via
- 1:00:34Instagram that he had a double lung transplant due to a severe
- 1:00:39case of pneumonia. Askren claims he died 4 times
- 1:00:43due to the ailment. Was put on the ventilator last
- 1:00:45month. No recollection, 0 idea, no idea
- 1:00:48what happened, he said of most of the past six weeks.
- 1:00:51I just read through my wifes journal.
- 1:00:53It's like a movie. It's ridiculous.
- 1:00:55I only died 4 times where the ticker stopped for about 20
- 1:00:59seconds. Askren, 40 years old, who
- 1:01:01retired in 2019. The 19 and two record across
- 1:01:05Bellator won championship in UFC.
- 1:01:08Last fought in a boxing epic exhibition with Jake Paul in
- 1:01:102021. Getting TKO D in the first
- 1:01:13round, which was better than his infamous five second loss to
- 1:01:16Jorge Masvidal is flying knee. Thankfully, Askren would not go
- 1:01:20down. In the.
- 1:01:20Fight of his life and somehow is now on the recovery from a
- 1:01:24double lung transplant. Paul commented.
- 1:01:27Shout out the bad and Askren just proved he's one of the
- 1:01:30toughest fighters of all time. And another special shout out
- 1:01:33from the Job in the Mouth crew as well to Askren and his
- 1:01:36family, former NBA guard Ben Macklemore.
- 1:01:39Was. Sentenced to a 100 months in
- 1:01:41prison on rape conviction on Wednesday.
- 1:01:43Macklemore's conviction stems from an incident and former
- 1:01:46Portland Trail Blazers teammate Robert Covington's house party
- 1:01:49back in 2021. Macklemore was found guilty last
- 1:01:52week on one charge of first degree rape, one charge of first
- 1:01:56degree unlawful sexual penetration and one count of
- 1:01:58second degree sexual abuse. Macklemore in a statement after
- 1:02:02his sentencing. We hope the Oregon Legislature
- 1:02:04will adopt a second look process that would evaluate whether he
- 1:02:08should serve the entire 100 month sentence or whether beyond
- 1:02:11the short alcohol influence encounter that led to this
- 1:02:14conviction. He is a.
- 1:02:15Considerate and humble person who has lived an honorable
- 1:02:18community focused life. That was actually his lawyer.
- 1:02:21Macklemore played nine years in the NBA after being drafted 7th
- 1:02:24overall in 2013. Played for five teams before
- 1:02:27going overseas to Greece, China and Spain.
- 1:02:29Macklemore will now head straight to jail for his crimes
- 1:02:32for the next 8 plus years unless his lawyer's second look process
- 1:02:35shaves off time, his sentence and finally likely number one
- 1:02:40overall pick in the 2026 NHL Hockey Draft, Gavin McKenna made
- 1:02:44a first of its kind choice in hockey and committed to Penn
- 1:02:47State University to play next year after two seasons with the
- 1:02:50Medicine Hat Tigers of the WHL. McKenna, who's 17, led the
- 1:02:54Tigers to the WHL title last year and was the 3rd youngest
- 1:02:58player to be named Canadian Hockey League Player of the
- 1:03:00Year, behind only Sidney Crosby and John Tavares.
- 1:03:04McKenna scored 129 points in 56 games for the Tigers, including
- 1:03:0941 goals, and had a 40 game point streak.
- 1:03:12Rules permitting CHL players to play in the NT AA have changed
- 1:03:16due to NIL and the destruction of amateurism and that system
- 1:03:19that befuddled college sports for decades.
- 1:03:22McKenna is rumoured to be getting an NIL deal from Penn
- 1:03:24State that's being called an extremely generous 6 figure
- 1:03:29author, which would be the largest NIL deal in hockey
- 1:03:32history. Guys, we are streaming live on

- 1:06:06What's up guys? Well, I have.
- 1:06:09Have have you ever been on a show like this?
- 1:06:11This. Is this is a crazy show, you get
- 1:06:13a chance to speak with Jabba Chamberlain for a little while.
- 1:06:16Jabba's eating his Twix and whatever he's eating over there.
- 1:06:20Probably getting some Reese's Pieces stuck in his.
- 1:06:22Oh, there it is. What is that?
- 1:06:24A Tootsie roll? Pop a Tootsie roll.
- 1:06:26Hopefully didn't get get lost in his.
- 1:06:28No, there they're called fruities.
- 1:06:31Fruities. They're flavored Tootsie rolls.
- 1:06:33Oh, there you go, flavored Tootsie rolls.
- 1:06:34Maybe we, you know, they're awesome.
- 1:06:37Now that you're a 250K winner, maybe you can invest into those
- 1:06:41fruity Tootsie rolls and we call them Danish rolls or something
- 1:06:44like that. It's listen, Matt, I mean, it's
- 1:06:47incredible the story niffing told us a little bit about you.
- 1:06:50We weren't at fanatic Fest. I was on a yacht almost, you
- 1:06:54know, getting arrested over there and you know, Bermuda,
- 1:06:56that's a whole nother story. I don't want to get into that.
- 1:06:58What was it like getting a chance to face off with one of
- 1:07:02the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game?
- 1:07:06Honestly, I. Didn't know what I was getting
- 1:07:07myself into. You know, Brady, he, he stepped
- 1:07:11it up, he he obviously took first place, but just being
- 1:07:14amongst everybody there, I mean Michael Rubin, the guys that
- 1:07:17he's able to bring into that event, there's just, you know,
- 1:07:20All Stars everywhere in that venue.
- 1:07:22So, you know, you just kind of got to stay level headed the
- 1:07:25best you can. And the mental side of it
- 1:07:27definitely played a big part. You didn't.
- 1:07:29You didn't worry about James Harden's beard.
- 1:07:31Getting in the way of things or or you know, LeBron James
- 1:07:34watching over you and saying LJALJA come and play for the
- 1:07:38LJA. You know, LeBron James
- 1:07:40association. We all know that.
- 1:07:41Is there anything that really scared you when you had to go
- 1:07:44face off against some of these superstar athletes and and and
- 1:07:48guys that you just come to respect multi millionaires out
- 1:07:52there trying to beat? Oh, just Matthew Dennisch.
- 1:07:55Yes, unfortunately it was a it was a three.
- 1:07:57Day event and you either went Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
- 1:08:01And so it's all kind of like spaced out through the day.
- 1:08:04And I was fortunate enough to go kind of early on Friday.
- 1:08:08So I posted my my score and I was actually #1 after I went, so
- 1:08:12kind of hung out there for a while and I didn't really have
- 1:08:15to stress about the other guys being around.
- 1:08:17And I think that kind of paid a low advantage.
- 1:08:20And then of course, Tom Brady passed me on Friday and then
- 1:08:23Justin Gaichi passed me on Saturday.
- 1:08:25So if there was any event that you competed.
- 1:08:27Against Was there anyone you were like, oh I have to beat
- 1:08:29this guy? This is the one I want to take
- 1:08:31down the most. Who wasn't in my promo video?
- 1:08:35I called out Brady and I was, you know, hoping to be able to
- 1:08:38take him down. I'm an Eagles fan, so, you know,
- 1:08:41had a little history there with Tom.
- 1:08:44Unfortunately, turns out he's a pretty nice guy, so he treated
- 1:08:47me very well up one stage backstage and everything.
- 1:08:50But yeah, he was the one guy I was going after and of course
- 1:08:53he's the GOAT and came out on top.
- 1:08:54Hold on, don't. There's a guy named.
- 1:08:57Joe Montana, don't forget. I think you're too young to get
- 1:09:01a chance to remember a guy like Joe Montana, but okay, good job.
- 1:09:04I'm sorry, I'm sorry to cut you. No, well, so Matt, kind of like
- 1:09:08for people that don't know what it is, give them like a like a
- 1:09:10breakdown of like how you got involved or like what is it?
- 1:09:13Because it was I mean, we we were involved, but I think
- 1:09:16there's a lot of people that kind of heard what happened and,
- 1:09:19you know, obviously I feel like this is going to grow.
- 1:09:21So like get like how how you got involved, how you knew and what
- 1:09:24you had to do to like get get to their it.
- 1:09:27It's going to be scary. The.
- 1:09:28Growth that comes from this thing because this was only year
- 1:09:30two. It was the very first year that
- 1:09:32average Joes like myself to participate.
- 1:09:35They had a little bit of that part last year, but you know,
- 1:09:38it's Michael Rubin. He's running his business, his
- 1:09:40Fanatics brand, and he's really pushing like the card sales and
- 1:09:43the venue. It's enormous.
- 1:09:45The Javits Center in New York City, you can't describe how big
- 1:09:49this place is. So it's spread out all through.
- 1:09:52You have vendors everywhere, all these events set up.
- 1:09:56So yeah, just, you know, the whole reason I got into this was
- 1:09:59social media and I'm not big on it.
- 1:10:00I don't post much. I do now, now that I've had the
- 1:10:03success. I made a little page for myself.
- 1:10:05But, you know, as far as entering it, Michael Rubin had
- 1:10:10stuff from from Fanatics and being a Sixers fan and he was
- 1:10:13kind of, you know, part of that a few years ago, just kind of
- 1:10:17follow him and he, he promoted it really well.
- 1:10:20So it had this whole thing and said, you know, come out, try to
- 1:10:23participate in these events and go against the pros.
- 1:10:25And that really intrigues me. I've been an athlete my whole
- 1:10:28life and I saw the little glimpses of the different
- 1:10:31events. I didn't know how it was going
- 1:10:32to be run, but basketball, baseball, football, you know,
- 1:10:35everything that I can do. I was like, you know, why not?
- 1:10:37They had the prizes, of course, listed and that was a little
- 1:10:39intriguing as well. So we are talking to Matthew
- 1:10:42Dennisch, a fan. Who won third place in Fanatic
- 1:10:44Fest this year? And I want to say something, and
- 1:10:47I don't know if anybody knows this.
- 1:10:48Tom Brady was actually a really good baseball player, so he
- 1:10:52could have actually play professional baseball.
- 1:10:54He chose the right sport. Obviously.
- 1:10:56I don't think he could argue that he did.
- 1:10:58And he he's going to go down if not the greatest, the second
- 1:11:01greatest. I mean, you can argue and I know
- 1:11:02everybody calls him the GOAT. I'm not, I'm a, I'm a Jet, AKA
- 1:11:06I'm not. I know you're going to like
- 1:11:08this. I'm also an Eagles fan.
- 1:11:10I grew up a Donovan McNabb fan over the years played when he
- 1:11:13played for Syracuse, when he was drafted by the Eagles.
- 1:11:16I fell in love with Donovan and and I actually worked with him
- 1:11:19at a couple of events and and got to experience hanging out
- 1:11:23with him. So I I love Donovan.
- 1:11:24So I root on the Eagles when The Jets suck, which is usually all
- 1:11:27the time, I root on the Eagles and they won the Super Bowl this
- 1:11:31year. I was very happy they screwed
- 1:11:33the Giants. Sticking it to the Giants after
- 1:11:35landing Saquon Barkley and giving it to him as Fish is
- 1:11:38sitting there probably mumbling you ass.
- 1:11:40But nevertheless, I I will say this.
- 1:11:43I've never got a chance to go to fanatic fest because this year I
- 1:11:46was on I was on a boat and like I said, I almost got arrested.
- 1:11:50But over the years it's this is the second year Michael Rubin
- 1:11:55has been one of the more respectable, you know, money
- 1:11:59makers when it comes to selling hats and you know, shirts and
- 1:12:03all these different sports memorabilia.
- 1:12:04He has been fantastic. He's made his billions off of it
- 1:12:08out of his car. What was it like actually
- 1:12:10hanging out with a guy like Michael Rubin?
- 1:12:13I mean, I, I, I've, I've heard through the Grapevine, he's not
- 1:12:17a big guy, but very smart, very educated.
- 1:12:20He is a big Philadelphia fan. He's from the Philadelphia area.
- 1:12:24As a matter of fact, he's the one that was pushing to get Meek
- 1:12:26Mills out of out of jail. If you don't know that story,
- 1:12:30what is it like hanging out with a guy like Michael Rubin?
- 1:12:33So I was actually at that game. When meek.
- 1:12:36Mill flew in on the helicopter on a Sixer season ticket holder.
- 1:12:38So actually, you know, like there he is just showing up to
- 1:12:41the game. But man, Michael Rubin, I'm 6
- 1:12:45foot 6. So yeah, he is on the smaller
- 1:12:46side compared to me. But just his energy.
- 1:12:49I mean, I was just blown away every time you see him, every
- 1:12:52time I interacted with him, he was so genuine, so passionate,
- 1:12:55like coming up to me, talking to me.
- 1:12:57But he just, he moves so fast and he just, it's no surprise
- 1:13:00he's as successful as he is. It was just how I was like, how
- 1:13:04does this guy do this non-stop? I saw some interviews he said
- 1:13:09leading up to it, this is the hardest event for him to run.
- 1:13:12It's like the most time consuming and exhausting event.
- 1:13:16But you can see why. Like, you know, just everything
- 1:13:19that they have there and he is everywhere.
- 1:13:21And that's the thing about this event.
- 1:13:22It's awesome. You see people running all over
- 1:13:24the place. Like the one time I was standing
- 1:13:26there and like, why are there 50 people walking that way?
- 1:13:29What was Tom Brady going down the the escalator?
- 1:13:32So it's just, you know, people are around constantly.
- 1:13:34It's just this very immersive event that he he's trying to
- 1:13:39build and they went from I think 80,000 year 1 to 125 year 2.
- 1:13:43You know, it's, it's so funny. He has all these events.
- 1:13:45He has the 4th of July party, which he threw this year again
- 1:13:48in the Hamptons, the White Party, where only movie stars in
- 1:13:51big names. Jabba wasn't invited.
- 1:13:53And when am I getting invited to one of those parties, Michael?
- 1:13:56I mean, I should be there. I should be the first person you
- 1:13:58invite and the last person to, you know, get sent home.
- 1:14:01But, you know, I'm not hanging out with Diddy as the Diddler
- 1:14:04did his things. I'm I'm going to go off that one
- 1:14:06and and kind of flip to the other one.
- 1:14:08But the fact is I think Mike and Michael Rubin is a very unique
- 1:14:13individual. He understands how to bring
- 1:14:16people together. You also understands how to sell
- 1:14:19a product that was really sold through the back of his car.
- 1:14:23He actually promoted his products and and making his own
- 1:14:27hats, his own shirt in the back of his car.
- 1:14:30As we've seen many different millionaires and billionaires
- 1:14:33make their money in their backyard or make it in their
- 1:14:36garage. Michael Rubin did out of the,
- 1:14:37the back of his car. So I, I think it's a unique
- 1:14:40story and I, that's something that if I ever got Michael Rubin
- 1:14:43on the show. The one thing I would ask
- 1:14:44Michael Rubin is out of all the different people you've worked
- 1:14:47with and obviously billionaires and millionaires, that when it
- 1:14:51comes to athletes and just business owners, who was the guy
- 1:14:54that really stood out from you the most?
- 1:14:55What what, what guy gave you the most information as, as a guy
- 1:15:00that has developed the product from nothing to something as as
- 1:15:03you've seen Michael Rubin do? That's my question.
- 1:15:06So I mean, Tom Brady, I've been around Tom Brady.
- 1:15:10I've been around all these guys. Is there one guy out there right
- 1:15:14now? If you saw him face to face
- 1:15:16where you just like, Oh my God, Oh my God, look, Oh my God, it's
- 1:15:20Donovan McNabb. I don't know what I what what
- 1:15:22should I say to him? You know what?
- 1:15:23Is there anybody out there that you just got starstruck?
- 1:15:29I mean to be honest. When I was backstage with Brady
- 1:15:32and them, it wasn't really starstruck, which kind of
- 1:15:35surprised me. I know everyone looking from the
- 1:15:37outside and like, you know, how were you so calm and everything
- 1:15:39with those guys? I don't know, it's just my
- 1:15:42personality, but I don't think there is anyone that would be
- 1:15:46really awesome to meet. Some people like Joel Embiid or
- 1:15:49something, be cool to just kind of see him on in a different
- 1:15:51side. But Matt, there's nobody.
- 1:15:56There's nobody. Out there right now, if you were
- 1:15:58standing right next to him, you wouldn't be like, Oh my God,
- 1:16:02I'm, I'm, I'm having a conversation with this guy.
- 1:16:05There's nobody, nobody. I don't know, maybe the Kelsey
- 1:16:09Brothers, They're pretty. All right, we got something out
- 1:16:13of Matt. There you go, not supplying for
- 1:16:15new heights. As we speak.
- 1:16:18All right, I want to. I want to shift gears.
- 1:16:20There was a big. Obviously the big one of the big
- 1:16:22trades that broke in the NBA offseason was Kevin Durant to
- 1:16:24the Rockets. Literally while he was there.
- 1:16:27What was the crowd vibe like from that and the reaction from
- 1:16:30him when when they found out? Well, they, I don't know if you
- 1:16:33saw the special they just streamed.
- 1:16:35Or had on ESPN the other night, but they broke it down by
- 1:16:38segments and had, you know, had his reaction and I was kind of
- 1:16:43in the midst of doing my stuff when it happened.
- 1:16:46So I didn't really get to see everything that was on stage.
- 1:16:48That's kind of the cool thing was like just off on the side
- 1:16:50and you hear about it like just how he was totally shocked and
- 1:16:54going back and watching that special and, and seeing him,
- 1:16:56it's like he did, he didn't know.
- 1:16:58Like it was just totally he was finding out the same time
- 1:17:01everybody else found out. I want to.
- 1:17:04I want to. Know all right they.
- 1:17:06They asked this. Other corny stuff.
- 1:17:08OK, what's been the perks of of of?
- 1:17:11Yeah, you're corny. Corn we, we want to know,
- 1:17:14obviously we knew the 250. That's coming from a guy that
- 1:17:16has a beard, you know, and coming from a guy that lives in
- 1:17:19a state with corn. Like that's my.
- 1:17:22Choice. Pass liquor I can't I.
- 1:17:25Can't tell where. My I was born at.
- 1:17:28Not like Jabba likes my shrimp cocktail.
- 1:17:31Shut up, Nathan. But what like the?
- 1:17:34Perch do you get to go back next?
- 1:17:35Year, is there stuff like with fanatics that that you're doing
- 1:17:39now or like what comes along with all of that afterwards?
- 1:17:43Like I think that's the cool part of like getting people
- 1:17:45involved. It's not just a one and done.
- 1:17:47Is there a bunch of other stuff or like what has been some of
- 1:17:50the perks that you've noticed or that have come your way since
- 1:17:54since all this went down? That is a good question.
- 1:17:57Yeah, so. That's the first time none of
- 1:17:59you got good questions. So slow my back out.
- 1:18:03You know it's been a. Learning process for me.
- 1:18:05For sure, I've never been a part of anything like this.
- 1:18:08I'm a teacher at a high school and you know, our days are kind
- 1:18:12of, you know, the same pretty much day in, day out.
- 1:18:16So part of the reason I got into this is just branching out.
- 1:18:18I like to find other things that excite me.
- 1:18:20So I didn't know how to handle everything when I was finished
- 1:18:24and was up on stage with all this stuff happening so quickly
- 1:18:28afterwards, of course, you know, I started to get some contacts
- 1:18:30with PR people and finance side of things and just a whole
- 1:18:35different world than I'm used to as far as education.
- 1:18:38So yeah, of course I really haven't said no.
- 1:18:41That was kind of my thing, like don't say no to anything.
- 1:18:43Just kind of see what opportunities open up.
- 1:18:46It has been a lot of media been over like 30, some 40 some
- 1:18:49interviews just talking to different media outlets.
- 1:18:53The half company Noggin boss give them a shout out.
- 1:18:57That was the one that they sought me out when I arrived on
- 1:19:00Sunday and had a good idea that I was going to win third place.
- 1:19:05So they, I didn't know it, but they just saw me and came up to
- 1:19:08me and I was just watching the golf event take place.
- 1:19:11And they asked me what my favorite team was.
- 1:19:14And they want to send me one of their big hats.
- 1:19:17And I said I was a Birds fan. And they said, well, we got one
- 1:19:19right here in our hand. Why don't you just take this
- 1:19:21one? So it's just all natural.
- 1:19:23And I was like, I got to wear this up on stage.
- 1:19:24So I wore it on stage. And if you saw the pictures
- 1:19:27there, it just kind of made a statement.
- 1:19:30So they've been working with me a little bit, making some videos
- 1:19:33for them. They're going to send me some
- 1:19:34more hats and that kind of thing.
- 1:19:36But you know, fanatics, you know, they haven't said
- 1:19:40officially if I'm going to come back or not next year.
- 1:19:42You are. I don't know when it is there,
- 1:19:44but I would hope they would. No, don't listen.
- 1:19:48If if Michael Rubin doesn't have you back then Michael Rubin's a
- 1:19:51little blind, but Michael Rubin is a businessman and he knows
- 1:19:54that you're going to be a draw. And now for all the things that
- 1:19:57you have had opportunities to do since that, I think it's going
- 1:20:01to open up optional, you know, you know, different competitions
- 1:20:06that you could join and not just the Michael Rubin fanatic.
- 1:20:09They'll they'll be optional. You know, summer, I don't know,
- 1:20:13there might be something out there where they're going to be
- 1:20:15other athletes saying, you know what, I can.
- 1:20:17I could beat Matthew. Matthew Denish at this let let's
- 1:20:20set something up and, and you're going to have an opportunity to
- 1:20:22win some more money because, you know, guys like James Harden,
- 1:20:25who I I think is an airhead, will probably get so jealous or
- 1:20:29is probably so jealous of you because he couldn't get over the
- 1:20:32hump where, you know, he might want to beat you or try to beat
- 1:20:35you at something because he can beat you there.
- 1:20:37So I, I think there are a lot of crazy athletes out there
- 1:20:40thinking, hey, you know what? Matthew Denish is lucky.
- 1:20:43Matthew Denish doesn't really have any athletic ability.
- 1:20:46Who the hell is Matthew Denish? Well, Matthew Dennis is a guy
- 1:20:49that just won 250K. He's making, you know,
- 1:20:52endorsement deals. And now by the way, I don't know
- 1:20:55what his Instagram has. He's got 10,000 people following
- 1:20:58him just because of a damn game at Fanatic Fest.
- 1:21:02But listen, Matt, we love you man.
- 1:21:04Congratulations dude, I appreciate it was awesome.
- 1:21:07Yes. And and by the way, a smile.
- 1:21:10Of, you know, Tom Brady handing you a pile of money should be
- 1:21:14something that you can celebrate forever because you are a
- 1:21:17Philadelphia Eagle fan. And who beat, yes, Tom Brady in
- 1:21:20the Super Bowl. That's right, the Philadelphia
- 1:21:22Eagles. And I remember Nick Foles, the
- 1:21:25MVP. Who would have thought that?
- 1:21:27Yeah, That's who I want to talk to.
- 1:21:28I want to get Nick Foles on this show.
- 1:21:30I want to tell Nick, what was it like kicking?
- 1:21:32You know what's you know, But at the Super Bowl, even though Tom
- 1:21:36Brady had his best Super Bowl against the Eagles, if you
- 1:21:38remember, he just can't catch the ball.
- 1:21:42What are you trying to do, Fish? You're trying to get me in
- 1:21:44trouble. Here Anyways, you know, Matt,
- 1:21:48what was it, first of all, when Nathan reached out to you and
- 1:21:50asked you to come on the show? Have you ever heard of our show?
- 1:21:53By the way, have you ever heard of this show?
- 1:21:55I have not. My one cousin got to give him a
- 1:21:59shout out. Wayne, he's up.
- 1:22:02He's a New Yorker. And when I said Jabba
- 1:22:05Chamberlain, he goes, oh man, there's a name.
- 1:22:09So yeah, he he actually came down to the event and he's a big
- 1:22:12Yankees fan, but he support me. He wore a Phillies hat.
- 1:22:16He bought 1 hopping off the the train station.
- 1:22:19He that was probably tough for him.
- 1:22:22That was. Probably tough.
- 1:22:23Oh, it was. It was all black it.
- 1:22:25Wasn't for sure. But man, he showed up, had some
- 1:22:29energy. It was just great to have
- 1:22:31someone from the the local area to to support me up there.
- 1:22:34But yeah, you know, you know Matt, you know what's really.
- 1:22:37Interesting if. You never get a chance to see
- 1:22:38it. Now that you've become a fan of
- 1:22:40the show, is actually C Jabba wearing a onesie?
- 1:22:43That, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the ugliest things to
- 1:22:46look at. This guy, when he started on
- 1:22:49this show, during the winter time, he would wear a onesie
- 1:22:52every other show. A different color, different
- 1:22:55weird onesie. And this guy is like a onesie.
- 1:22:58Phenomenal. We should actually hook up with
- 1:23:00a sponsor that's like a onesie company and forever, Forever
- 1:23:04lazy.com. That's all I, that's all I wear.
- 1:23:06So why don't we reach out to Forever Lazy?
- 1:23:08But Matthew, maybe we set something up and we get you in
- 1:23:11the studio or maybe we'll do something together.
- 1:23:14We'll cut up this interview. You can post it up on your
- 1:23:17social media. And we want you to be a fan.
- 1:23:20We want you to promote us just as much as we'll promote you.
- 1:23:23I will be well. Matt, will you give?
- 1:23:26Everybody to. Like your social just on like,
- 1:23:28you know, things that you're doing, whether it's IG, Twitter,
- 1:23:31I know Fish probably put your IG up, but just for everybody to
- 1:23:34hear. Yeah.
- 1:23:35So it's just average Joe. Under score Dennis, my last name
- 1:23:40and just been posting stuff like leading up to the event and some
- 1:23:44of the interviews I've done. Just kind of given an inside
- 1:23:46glimpse if people want to do this and apply for the event.
- 1:23:50Kind of what it takes and the mentality side of things, which
- 1:23:52you because a lot of people can, you know, throw some, you know,
- 1:23:55football, baseball, but my kind of start to finish of a little
- 1:23:58bit of like a cheat code of my mental side of things.
- 1:24:02That's kind of posted on there as well.
- 1:24:04Why don't you try? Why don't you try the hot?
- 1:24:06Dog eating contest next year for 4th of July.
- 1:24:08That would be cool. But he was there.
- 1:24:11He was doing the chicken eating contest.
- 1:24:14Yeah, wasn't it the wasn't it raising canes or?
- 1:24:17Whatever it was, yeah, raising canes.
- 1:24:19And then there was like a team of four.
- 1:24:20Like Libby Dunn was there, Michael Rubin did it, but they
- 1:24:22had like 4 verse Joey and Joey's still one.
- 1:24:25Well, we saw Joey Chestnuts at. Oh well, chestnut or he might
- 1:24:29have nuts or maybe one nut. Speedy's got one, but we saw him
- 1:24:33at the Super Bowl at Radio Row so and we're we're working on
- 1:24:36getting him on the show. That would be really, really
- 1:24:38cool. Joey's he's a great personality.
- 1:24:41Everything that he does right now off air and he stands for a
- 1:24:45lot for some average Joe person like you to to do what he has
- 1:24:49done over the years and make hot dog eating a sport and a sport
- 1:24:55that really center stage what eating really eating as a whole.
- 1:24:59Yeah, I mean, just it's eating's become a sport.
- 1:25:02I mean, you, you. I would love to see that in the
- 1:25:04Olympics. Why not?
- 1:25:06You have all these. They have Major League eating
- 1:25:08now. Let's see that in the Olympics.
- 1:25:10Why not? I mean, all these guys they have
- 1:25:12walking. Yeah, well, they have everything
- 1:25:15they had. They what?
- 1:25:16They're break dancing this past year.
- 1:25:18They're going to have EA, you know, E sports, E sports soon
- 1:25:23for video games. So why not have hot dog eating
- 1:25:26or just eating? There's a guy that ate beans.
- 1:25:29I don't remember what it was. What was it, 100 cans of beans
- 1:25:31in like? Oh yeah, I did hear about like
- 1:25:33like in a minute and 30 seconds or some crazy.
- 1:25:36You can, you can go, you can go to Major League eating and it
- 1:25:39gives you all of the records like like 108 deviled eggs in
- 1:25:43like 8 minutes or something. It's crazy.
- 1:25:45Could you imagine me eat? Like 100.
- 1:25:47Cans of beans and how many times or how, how bad my farts would
- 1:25:51be. I mean, I my my farts don't
- 1:25:53smell. Yeah, that'll be the test for
- 1:25:54you, actually. Could you smell?
- 1:25:56Maple farts coming out of my. Rear end.
- 1:25:58I mean, I I want to try something.
- 1:26:00I don't know if you've ever watched a show, Matt, I, I put,
- 1:26:03you know, Icy hot on my scrotum for 10 minutes.
- 1:26:06I broke a gatest book of world records and I'm I want to do
- 1:26:09something else. I want a light a match, you
- 1:26:13know, and fart and see if it actually, I've heard stories
- 1:26:16that if you fart and because of the gas that comes out of your
- 1:26:18ass, it can like the, you know, light it on fire.
- 1:26:21I want to try it on. It's called, it's called methane
- 1:26:23gas. Yes.
- 1:26:24OK. So I want to try it on National
- 1:26:26Honor Radio show and see how it works.
- 1:26:28Matt, would you actually watch the show?
- 1:26:30If I did that? I know I'd burn the hairs in my
- 1:26:32ass or whatever I have left in it.
- 1:26:34You know, you seem like a very talented skilled.
- 1:26:36Man, so I, I'm a little, I think that would happen.
- 1:26:38Before we let you go. Matt was.
- 1:26:40There was. There one sport that all the
- 1:26:42things you did that you surprised yourself at.
- 1:26:44Oh for sure, it was baseball. I can throw, but it was you got
- 1:26:496 pitches and you can appreciate this.
- 1:26:53They did nine boxes within the strike zone.
- 1:26:56So now I I saw some of the I saw some of those athletes.
- 1:26:59Throw. It was rough.
- 1:27:00Well, we didn't know. That the corners were five
- 1:27:03points. Oh, OK.
- 1:27:04That center was one and the other four were three points.
- 1:27:08So placing in the corners, I ended up hitting four out of my
- 1:27:116 throws in the corner. So I end up first place out of
- 1:27:15all 100 people. And it was like Russell Wilson
- 1:27:18was there and you said Tom Brady could play baseball.
- 1:27:20Like all those guys that have that background.
- 1:27:22My that was the reason I won. Just be able to place them in
- 1:27:25the right spot. So for sure surprise myself.
- 1:27:28Where are the Yankees? Where are the Yankees?
- 1:27:31We're the Yankees we need. Some bullpen.
- 1:27:33Help go steal Russell Wilson. From the Giants, we'll take it.
- 1:27:39I'm going to lose my voice before the show's over.
- 1:27:42I'm losing it all right. Anyways, Matt, we really
- 1:27:45appreciate the time. Nathan is a big fan of yours and
- 1:27:49he was the one that helped us get you on the show.
- 1:27:51And we'd love to get you on the show again.
- 1:27:52And we'd love for you to be a fan of our show.
- 1:27:55And, and, and we're going to promote you.
- 1:27:57We have, you're the first guy that has been a part of the
- 1:28:01fanatic fest that's been on our show.
- 1:28:02And that actually means something.
- 1:28:04And I, I just wish you the best man.
- 1:28:06And, and let's get you, let's get you on multiple times in the
- 1:28:09next couple of months and, and see what you're doing, see where
- 1:28:11you're at for sure. And I appreciate this a lot of
- 1:28:14fun. Maybe you guys should attend
- 1:28:17next year. Absolutely.
- 1:28:18Well, why don't you tell Michael?
- 1:28:20Rubin to actually invite us. How's that?
- 1:28:22I won't go on, you know, these boat trips during these these
- 1:28:26crazy events. I mean, I should be there.
- 1:28:29I don't know if I'd win. I'd love to see Java.
- 1:28:31First of all. We have a bet and this is going
- 1:28:33to happen. I have told Joppa that out of
- 1:28:36how many times, Speedy, I don't remember exactly 5.
- 1:28:38I thought it was 10 times. I could steal.
- 1:28:40I could. Steal.
- 1:28:40At least once against him with a person with a catcher and a
- 1:28:43person at the plate and he's got a pitch against them.
- 1:28:46I could steal against them. We're going to get this going
- 1:28:48before the year is over, before the summer is over.
- 1:28:51I want to do this. We're going to meet in New
- 1:28:53Jersey or something, something. And and if I win, he's got to
- 1:28:56take all of us out to a nice steak dinner.
- 1:28:58That would be great, wouldn't it?
- 1:28:59And we'll bring you. How about that?
- 1:29:01You could come and watch us. You could be a spectator because
- 1:29:03you live up. Was it?
- 1:29:04Oh, yeah. Winner.
- 1:29:05Winner. Has.
- 1:29:06To take everybody to dinner. Everybody to dinner.
- 1:29:08Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.
- 1:29:10And hey, Matt, Matt, I don't. Know if you just.
- 1:29:12Read this but Nathan said he's going to enter the Fanatics
- 1:29:15Games next. All right, Nathan, you're going
- 1:29:16to compete in your blue. Blazer.
- 1:29:18Oh please, I he. Posted up a picture, a video of
- 1:29:23him throwing a football and the first thing Jabba says is you
- 1:29:26got to work on your undercarriage.
- 1:29:28Yeah, work on that lower half question, which athlete would be
- 1:29:31best? Significant blue blazer.
- 1:29:34Hey, Fish, Matt. Matt.
- 1:29:35Have you seen this? Outfit that Nitin rocks in this
- 1:29:38famous blue blazer that he has his fish If you can pull this
- 1:29:42he. Posted.
- 1:29:43This and he was so excited, but this outfit was rough.
- 1:29:47And you as a teacher, you probably see granted PE, but you
- 1:29:51probably see in the hallway some some crazy outfits.
- 1:29:54This, this was this was rough, man.
- 1:29:58Yeah, and we want to. He wears it everywhere.
- 1:30:02So we're trying to get him to have all the athletes like sign
- 1:30:05it and that'd be sweet. And he could wear it to all
- 1:30:07these events. Yes, I think it's it's so close
- 1:30:11to his heart. I don't think he can.
- 1:30:12Do it? I think he's lost.
- 1:30:13I think he really wants to believe that this blazer makes
- 1:30:17him the sexiest man alive. I really do believe.
- 1:30:20And he wears these cargo pants. These cargo camo pants.
- 1:30:25Yes, exactly. And a red shirt, a red like a
- 1:30:29polo shirt under it. It is.
- 1:30:31It is the best luck. It is the best luck.
- 1:30:34It's definitely. Something that really stands for
- 1:30:35Nathan and his personality. Do we have that fish?
- 1:30:38Are we getting that up? He says he lost it.
- 1:30:40Oh, he lost it. Oh, that sucks.
- 1:30:42We'll send that to you, Matt. We'll send that to you.
- 1:30:44Yeah, we'll send it. Absolutely.
- 1:30:46It's something to definitely look at.
- 1:30:47But could any of you guys pull it off?
- 1:30:50I think I could. Now the real question who Who
- 1:30:53will be able to win a competition?
- 1:30:54The best in the blue blazer. You know, it's weird because I'm
- 1:30:58a. Very particular fashion person,
- 1:31:00so I don't know if I would even be caught dead with any of those
- 1:31:03colors, but Nathan is one of those unique individuals that
- 1:31:09will wear anything and be anything at any time.
- 1:31:13So including this, yes, it is definitely a unique look and
- 1:31:19something that you probably would never see anybody wear but
- 1:31:22him. But nevertheless, I don't think
- 1:31:24it would fit you. That blue blazer, you're 66.
- 1:31:26Forget it. That blazer wouldn't even fit on
- 1:31:29your your half your body. I mean, look at Nathan.
- 1:31:31He's 5 foot 6. He's got a great personality.
- 1:31:34There's no question that he does, and that's why everybody
- 1:31:36loves him. He's like a little cute Oompa
- 1:31:38Loompa, you know, like a Smurf. He wears the blue Smurf.
- 1:31:42Anyways, Matt, we love you. Keep up the good work, buddy.
- 1:31:46Appreciate it. Much appreciated you.
- 1:31:48Guys are awesome. Matthew Danish.
- 1:31:51I got his name right, ladies, and I called him a Danish, you
- 1:31:54know? But hey, I like danishes,
- 1:31:55Speedy. You like danishes?
- 1:31:56Some flavors. I like cinnamon.
- 1:31:58You like those cinnamon muffins? Yeah, those are good.
- 1:32:01I absolutely like that. But you know, you guys are
- 1:32:04spoiled up there though, because you guys get good bakeries like
- 1:32:07we do. Got like maybe 1.
- 1:32:10That's true. I definitely could say that we
- 1:32:12are spoiled when it comes to the bakeries and the cakes.
- 1:32:14By the way, King Cullen was closed down over here in Selden.
- 1:32:17So how many King Cullen's are getting closed down?
- 1:32:19I love King Cullen's bakery and I'm promoting them.
- 1:32:23Yes, King Cullen, you should be promoting our show.
- 1:32:26So you got to watch. You got to watch your blood
- 1:32:28sugar. Damn it.
- 1:32:29I I should. No, no, that's not.
- 1:32:31It's my A1C ladies and gentlemen or whatever it is.
- 1:32:34I'm pre diabetic as we all know. But guys, guess what?
- 1:32:39It's been 12 or 30, 13 days without a sugar drink.
- 1:32:41So I've been sticking to Mio and water and I am doing a good job.
- 1:32:46So shout out to fish for giving me some advice and staying out
- 1:32:49of sugar trouble. Anyways, I had I had Pizza Hut
- 1:32:52last night. I had to I was hungry.
- 1:32:54I was at the mechanic shop for six hours.
- 1:32:57My friend it took him 3 hours to look at my car and he found
- 1:33:01thank God the the advance auto. I'm giving another shout out to
- 1:33:04Advance Auto Actually got had the parts that I needed to fix
- 1:33:08my car. So I shout out to Advance Auto
- 1:33:10for saving my life. I was gonna read some pics from
- 1:33:12Wes. He had three picks.
- 1:33:13In the CFL this week, he's got Saskatchewan.
- 1:33:16They play tomorrow at home -4 1/2 against the Calgary
- 1:33:19Stampeders, Saturday night, January 7:00 he's got or Sunday
- 1:33:25night I should say, BC -2 1/2. They're playing on the road at
- 1:33:29Edmonton. That's Sunday at 7:00.
- 1:33:31And then on Saturday night the Ottawa Red Blacks covering plus
- 1:33:345 1/2 on the road against the Hamilton Tiger.
- 1:33:37Just so you guys know how on point.
- 1:33:39He is when it comes to the CFL, since he started, the season has
- 1:33:44started, he's been 81% so he is on point with the Canadian
- 1:33:49Football League. So if you guys I know, I know
- 1:33:52somebody that doesn't like it and that is the one and only
- 1:33:55Carl as I got a drop for him. Here it is.
- 1:33:58Carl plays with himself, as we all know.
- 1:34:00Carl. Plays with himself.
- 1:34:01Carl. Carl Will.
- 1:34:02Also, never appreciate West. Because W did say like one team
- 1:34:05you'll never bet on. It's Michigan either.
- 1:34:07That's true too. And and and.
- 1:34:09I don't blame him because besides the national
- 1:34:11championship that they won with Jim Harbaugh before he, you
- 1:34:14know, decided to flee and go to go to the Chargers, well.
- 1:34:18Ladies. And gentlemen, the old and the
- 1:34:20only thing our friend Carl could say is, oh, they didn't cheat.
- 1:34:25That was fair. By the way, I don't I don't
- 1:34:27think Michigan should have gotten in trouble as much as
- 1:34:30they did in the way that all happened.
- 1:34:32But that's a whole nother story. Anyways, why don't we get into
- 1:34:34our next subject in our segment as we call this the Whip Around
- 1:34:38whip. Whip, whip around.
- 1:34:49The whipper on. Did you like that, Speedy?
- 1:34:51I did. That was like, I don't know what
- 1:34:53what? It's a much better upgrade from
- 1:34:55your clown laugh. That laugh that you haven't.
- 1:35:00Done in the like years. Well, that was.
- 1:35:02Sacred. You know that's a sacred.
- 1:35:03Laugh that I used on the show and it scared the shit out of
- 1:35:06everybody that listened to the show.
- 1:35:08Then you started using it on Jeff and it was much better.
- 1:35:11Oh well, Jeff is a whole another world I.
- 1:35:13Mean I wanted to you know there was so many times that Jeff get
- 1:35:15him on the show that he just pissed me off so much that we
- 1:35:18had this remember we had that picture of him sitting on a boat
- 1:35:21and like sinking remember that that was great by the way the
- 1:35:25best one was the one with the beef though oh God, the.
- 1:35:27Beaver I got to find. That I got to find that I had I
- 1:35:31had his face on on on the beef on the Beaver and I had his mom
- 1:35:36on the other. That is great.
- 1:35:37And I actually have a picture of his mother sitting on my lap
- 1:35:40during Thanksgiving, and I posted that.
- 1:35:42That's pretty nice too. I love his mother.
- 1:35:44His mother's the best. So the bee's mother loves me and
- 1:35:47I love her. And if she wasn't married, maybe
- 1:35:50she'd be taking care of me, if you know what I mean.
- 1:35:52Anyways, let's go. We got the whipper rounds coming
- 1:35:55up right here. We got a few stories, guys.
- 1:35:59For today, we're going to start off with the NFL.
- 1:36:03PA now Errol, we. Mentioned this a week ago and I
- 1:36:07think we were right and we actually broke a story because
- 1:36:10the NFLPA executive director Lloyd Howell junior they found
- 1:36:15out that he's doing consulting work on the side for a firm that
- 1:36:19is investing in NFL ownership, meaning he's playing both sides
- 1:36:25of the fence that's not exactly what you want so looks.
- 1:36:30Like I'm still having technical difficulty.
- 1:36:32Guys, that's hard. I think I'm going to be able to
- 1:36:34fix it all right. It's all tough.
- 1:36:35We're. Going to be able to get it.
- 1:36:37Well, somebody's got to get it right, Speedy.
- 1:36:39Maybe it'll be Nathan's department.
- 1:36:41Well, Nathan? Wears that blue blazer, so he
- 1:36:43might be a. Little lost.
- 1:36:43He'll he'll get, he'll get everything with the blue blazer.
- 1:36:46Well, it'll finish it off with the leash.
- 1:36:49I mean, if I had a strap or, you know, a whip.
- 1:36:52I I wonder how Nathan would react if I the whip is don't
- 1:36:55match for Nathan's amazing leash.
- 1:36:57I, I mean seriously, I, I don't know if.
- 1:36:59Nathan can handle the that leash sound.
- 1:37:01If I actually put a leash on somebody that he loved, one of
- 1:37:04his loved ones, I actually took him out for a walk.
- 1:37:07It took him a stroll around the park.
- 1:37:09Nathan loves those leashes, by the way.
- 1:37:11But yeah, all right, looks, looks like we're working now,
- 1:37:14guys. Sorry about that.
- 1:37:16That was Part 1. Nathan does love leashes.
- 1:37:19The second part of the Nathan loving leashes thing, I guess
- 1:37:22it's not working. Let me pull it back up.
- 1:37:26Dodger. There is somebody.
- 1:37:27Duty. Dodging, and it might.
- 1:37:29Be nif that's we we got a little bit higher pixel rate.
- 1:37:32So I got to be a little bit more careful with these files guys.
- 1:37:34So we talked about last week the collusion that was covered up by
- 1:37:38Howells NFLPA because of the Shawn Watson concept contract
- 1:37:42was all guaranteed money. And well, then the Goodell went
- 1:37:45around to everyone and tried to get them to not give out the
- 1:37:47guaranteed money. They had them dead to rights and
- 1:37:51they signed some backroom deal, Howell and Goodell, that allowed
- 1:37:55them to collude in this manner. And now we're finding out that
- 1:37:58he's also working for a consulting firm, Errol, trying
- 1:38:02to buy into NFL ownership. Why don't we start there with
- 1:38:06just how corrupt the NFL is? Well, I think all professional
- 1:38:11sports have corrupt people. And Howell is just one of those
- 1:38:14people that are trying to educate you on how to screw
- 1:38:18around. Not just with the NFL and and
- 1:38:21what the NFL does behind the scenes with it when it comes to
- 1:38:24players and colluding with the ownership and the players, but
- 1:38:28also colluding with Ferns that are helping him get richer.
- 1:38:31And I'm not surprised that Howell, I don't know him
- 1:38:34personally and I don't know much about him, but the the story is,
- 1:38:38is that that this guy is under under advancing himself in many
- 1:38:44different ways with an organization like the NFL that
- 1:38:47is a multi billion dollar organization bringing in money
- 1:38:50after money and thousands and millions and trillions of
- 1:38:54dollars over the last couple of years through endorsements and
- 1:38:58and players. The players run the league,
- 1:39:00should run the league, but the owners have Roger Goodell
- 1:39:03persuading them to believe that they are running the league.
- 1:39:07Now, if the players decide to after the CBA to go on strike
- 1:39:11and and try to get more money, then the the the owners are
- 1:39:15going to have to buy into the situation for what it is.
- 1:39:17But Howell is not anything more than, I believe, a puppet.
- 1:39:22And I don't think Howell's the only person getting involved
- 1:39:24with this. Well, I just think he's the
- 1:39:26center stage voice of what's going on that we don't know.
- 1:39:30Speedy they said that that this is the first time there's ever
- 1:39:33been a issue like this with the union head where he was working
- 1:39:37outside of being the union head and getting money elsewhere as
- 1:39:42far as like a salary, it seems it seems shady or he was the.
- 1:39:46Only one that got caught, right? Well, but he's like brazen and
- 1:39:49saying I'm not going to stop. You guys can say whatever you
- 1:39:52want. I'm just going to do it and make
- 1:39:53three and a half $1,000,000 from the union to be its head while
- 1:39:58I'm working actively by the. Way it seems against the union,
- 1:40:01Yep, that's as corrupt as it gets.
- 1:40:03That's where you're benefiting on both sides and it gets like
- 1:40:05corrupt. From an individual standpoint,
- 1:40:07if Roger and honestly if Roger Goodell.
- 1:40:09Gives a crap. Why doesn't Roger Goodell step
- 1:40:11in and do something about it? Because he benefits from it's
- 1:40:13just going to say Roger. That's why he can do it, because
- 1:40:16he's not going to stop it. Exactly.
- 1:40:18There you got your own. Answer right there, ladies and
- 1:40:20gentlemen. So me, it's like the players,
- 1:40:23Jabba, if if this was happening in baseball while you're still
- 1:40:25playing, wouldn't there be a revolt amongst the players and
- 1:40:28try to remove the BPA leader? Well, yeah, you look at it yeah,
- 1:40:33both ways too. And think about like when the
- 1:40:36scabs cross a line in the strike, like they didn't like
- 1:40:38those guys like getting jobs in baseball and like, well, you
- 1:40:41cross the line and now you're trying to double dip because
- 1:40:44it's like, well, I'm not going to make it, but I can I.
- 1:40:46Can. Still get paid because I'm not,
- 1:40:48you know, a lifelong big leader. You're not going to get
- 1:40:50anything. It just sucks.
- 1:40:51You put everybody kind of in a bad situation because you're
- 1:40:53really like, what the hell you do.
- 1:40:55But if you're in Goodell's pocket and still making him
- 1:40:58money, as you've seen it, the owners pay him.
- 1:41:01So if he's like, I'm still going to make my whatever the amount
- 1:41:04is and you don't care, then I guess I'll collude.
- 1:41:09Or whatever we. Call it and still do it.
- 1:41:12I mean, I guess the collusion thing made sense because the
- 1:41:14Browns contract was that stupid, right?
- 1:41:16I guess everyone's like it made sense for this one.
- 1:41:20We'll. Collude.
- 1:41:20Because the Browns are stupid, but it's still real fishy, man.
- 1:41:25You know what's real fishy? Why doesn't TJ Watt have a
- 1:41:28contract and Deshaun Watson's making hundreds of millions of
- 1:41:31dollars? That's what I want to know that
- 1:41:34that is a great question. Another.
- 1:41:35Great. Question is, why did the Falcons
- 1:41:38give Kirk Cousins all this money just to draft Michael Pennix?
- 1:41:42Because on the new season of Quarterback on Netflix, which
- 1:41:46just came out this week, Errol, no, I got to check it out.
- 1:41:49Cousins admitted he was really upset.
- 1:41:52Guy this, didn't he say taken back?
- 1:41:55Is that what he was taken aback? Which is like, which is what
- 1:41:59like older people always would say to try to be like, I'm not
- 1:42:02mad, I'm disappointed. You know, it's it's like one of
- 1:42:05those. So we got to talk about Kirk
- 1:42:08Cousins. He's I mean, they said they're
- 1:42:10not going to trade him. It just seems crazy as soon as
- 1:42:14there's the first major injury amongst quarterbacks that his
- 1:42:17name isn't going to be the one that's on the move.
- 1:42:20Well, that's why they're not going to trade him because
- 1:42:22they're, they're want, they want everybody to believe that
- 1:42:25they're going to keep him. And if anything happens to
- 1:42:27Michael Pennix, remember, Michael Pennix is a young guy.
- 1:42:30If, if he starts the season very cold or there's a little bit too
- 1:42:34much pressure on him, what are they going to do?
- 1:42:35They're going to bring Kirk Cousins in.
- 1:42:37I, I just think right now the reason why they did that was
- 1:42:40pretty specific. They were bringing in, they
- 1:42:43didn't think Michael Pennix was going to develop the way he did
- 1:42:48throughout the offseason and actually even played this year.
- 1:42:51Remember, he came back from a bad answer.
- 1:42:53Who did? Who did we have on?
- 1:42:55And he was like, why would you play panics at this point?
- 1:42:58Like it's just going to tell you to Ovi and Ovi and Holly and
- 1:43:02then literally the. Next, wasn't that?
- 1:43:03I think it was the next week that two weeks later from when
- 1:43:07we had. Him.
- 1:43:07On Yeah, Yeah. I just I actually.
- 1:43:10Believe that nobody. Thought Michael Pennix was going
- 1:43:12to be ready this year and he was working to come back as quick as
- 1:43:15he possibly can. And again, Atlanta, nobody would
- 1:43:19have thought that at one point Michael Pennix some people
- 1:43:22didn't even think was a first round draft pick that he was
- 1:43:24going to fall into the early second round.
- 1:43:26But then obviously Atlanta loved him.
- 1:43:29They loved the interview that he had.
- 1:43:31He's a big team leader, a guy that really has a great arm and
- 1:43:35he showed it at some point to this, this past season.
- 1:43:38But again, he's a young guy and Atlanta is is a team that is
- 1:43:42trying to find a spark, a team that had Ryan there, who is
- 1:43:46going to be Maddie Ice, who is going to be a Hall of Famer.
- 1:43:50And and they wanted another face to that organization, an owner
- 1:43:53that was looking for another face.
- 1:43:55That organization, Kirk Cousins was not.
- 1:43:57It's going to be that face. And I think Kirk Cousins was
- 1:44:00upset the fact that him and I think Kirk Cousin wanted to go
- 1:44:03over there to Atlanta because his wife's family is from that
- 1:44:06Atlanta, from the Atlanta area. So that I don't think it was
- 1:44:11necessarily why he was getting paid.
- 1:44:13He did get his money. But Kirk Cousins has to
- 1:44:15understand it's this is a young man's sport.
- 1:44:18And Michael Pennis is that next big thing for the Atlanta
- 1:44:23Falcons. Besides Acunia, is there anybody
- 1:44:26from in Atlanta right now that really stands?
- 1:44:28And don't say Trey Young. No, Michael Pennix is the next
- 1:44:31big star in Atlanta, and they're in Atlanta.
- 1:44:34And the Falcons are going to try to put him center stage as fast
- 1:44:37as they possibly can. Why?
- 1:44:39To sell tickets and sell jerseys.
- 1:44:42That's what they're there for, to make moolah.
- 1:44:45And nobody wants a Kirk Cottage jersey.
- 1:44:47Yeah, it's also a bit of problem the last couple of years.
- 1:44:49To even getting the fans from what they were when even with
- 1:44:52the futuristic stadium they have post Georgia Dome era because
- 1:44:56they haven't won much but and Georgia with their success in
- 1:44:58college football, it's kind of outdone them at Mercedes-Benz
- 1:45:01Stadium. So so they definitely need a
- 1:45:03spark now obviously keeping him on the roster from mainly for
- 1:45:05cap situation where they can't move him for any good value.
- 1:45:08So you might as well keep him. And the other thing even if
- 1:45:10Panics doesn't struggle, he still might get hurt.
- 1:45:12He had two major injuries in college too.
- 1:45:14So it's another thing to consider.
- 1:45:17Don't you think that? It's a fireable offense.
- 1:45:19To tie up $40 million in cap on a backup quarterback, of course.
- 1:45:24What are you doing? I say Terry Potnow.
- 1:45:26Is a great. GM.
- 1:45:28But like, to me, that's a fireable offense.
- 1:45:30Job but if you were paying but this like when they paid, you
- 1:45:33know, Jacoby Ellsbury, all that money not to play it.
- 1:45:37It's the equivalent, isn't it? Yeah, I mean, but it's it's
- 1:45:40usually. Usually, not that usually you're
- 1:45:42getting those guys that you're still paying, you know, 3 to 5
- 1:45:45million and I get you taking a back.
- 1:45:50But. Then you can you still want to
- 1:45:52have somebody in in Kirk Cousins.
- 1:45:55I wouldn't say is Doo Doo magoo. He's serviceable.
- 1:45:58That's a good one. And you and you have somebody
- 1:46:02that can step in for if, if panic deserts like Speedy said.
- 1:46:06He's had, he's had some serious injuries before, so he's thrown
- 1:46:09to that. So I don't.
- 1:46:12But to have that. Amount of money as a backup
- 1:46:14quarterback fish? I agree.
- 1:46:16Like it's you kind of got to shake your head first of all.
- 1:46:19Really. Is like your direction?
- 1:46:21What is your direction? I disagree with you guys because
- 1:46:23Atlanta is trying to go young right now and they didn't.
- 1:46:27They're not using their money anywhere else.
- 1:46:29They drafted 2 defensive lineman.
- 1:46:31They're not going. They're not bringing in veteran
- 1:46:33guys that they're going to overpay.
- 1:46:35And Kirk Cousins is, I believe, a piece that they're going to
- 1:46:39move. They could say whatever they
- 1:46:40want. The whole point of bringing Kirk
- 1:46:41Cousins in in is because he wanted the money and they knew
- 1:46:46that Michael Pennix was probably going to be ready the second
- 1:46:48year and they were going to use them as trade bait.
- 1:46:50And right now, if you were to ask me right now who is the best
- 1:46:54available quarterback if need be, it's Kirk Cousins.
- 1:46:58It's not even an argument. So.
- 1:47:00I think the fact is Atlanta looked at Kirk Cousins as a
- 1:47:03trade ship one way or another in the four years of the three
- 1:47:07years that he signed to go over there to Atlanta.
- 1:47:09I don't think it was a bad move. I don't think it was a smart
- 1:47:12move. I just think that Kirk Cousins
- 1:47:14was either going to take that money or he was going to go
- 1:47:16somewhere else where he's going to get paid.
- 1:47:18Somebody was paying him. Atlanta just thought, hey, you
- 1:47:21know what, we need a starting quarterback at least one year.
- 1:47:23Let's go after the best one that was available.
- 1:47:27I don't know it to me. Like at 40. $1,000,000 that's a
- 1:47:29bunch of pieces that would make your team better.
- 1:47:31That Daniel Jones made 40 million.
- 1:47:33That's not a lot. Yeah.
- 1:47:34And see how good the Giants were.
- 1:47:36Well, I again, I'm I'm looking at the facts here.
- 1:47:40Kirk Cousins before last year was a pretty good quarterback
- 1:47:43before he he tore his Achilles. As a matter of fact, if you look
- 1:47:47at his numbers, you would say that he was amongst the top ten
- 1:47:50in the league. So I disagree.
- 1:47:52He was one of the worst quarterbacks in football last
- 1:47:54year. He tore his Achilles before the
- 1:47:55season. I'm not.
- 1:47:56Talking. About last year, I'm talking
- 1:47:58about 23 after the fact. Oh, before he got hurt, yes,
- 1:48:02yes. So they were predicting Kobe was
- 1:48:04one of the best players in the world before he tore his
- 1:48:06Achilles, couldn't play after football's different quarterback
- 1:48:08position's different. So basketball, maybe you're
- 1:48:11jumping and quarterback, you're just standing and and throwing
- 1:48:14the ball. He's stepping into the throw.
- 1:48:16So I don't know. All right, let's move on to the
- 1:48:19guys that protect that quarterback and Tristan and
- 1:48:21worse, Tristan worse, one of the best left tackles in all of
- 1:48:24football for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
- 1:48:27He's going to miss the at least four first four games he's going
- 1:48:29to put on the PUP list. He is, you know, obviously.
- 1:48:34They've said. That when they had that.
- 1:48:35Big draft with Andrew Thomas worse was the only one that
- 1:48:38everyone said was clearly the number one guy after that year,
- 1:48:42and he stayed the number one guy even with Thomas playing great
- 1:48:45at at stretches. Speedy, let's start with you on
- 1:48:48this one. What does a worse?
- 1:48:51Injury. Look like for this team.
- 1:48:54Because, you know you got Baker. Mayfield, he's not the fastest
- 1:48:57quarterback, but he is a pocket kind of quarterback.
- 1:49:00I, I do, I, I do think he can scramble some, but I think this
- 1:49:03is going to affect their offense.
- 1:49:04Yeah, it it was a big issue for them in 2022.
- 1:49:07When Worst was dealing with very similar injury problems and that
- 1:49:10was Tom Brady's final year in the NFL.
- 1:49:12He took a lot more hits than he than he should have.
- 1:49:14And the Bucks has done a nice job rebuilding that offensive
- 1:49:16line since then. But again, they haven't had that
- 1:49:18much experience playing without him.
- 1:49:20I agree with you. I think it's a big thing to
- 1:49:22watch in the beginning of the season.
- 1:49:23Have to do more quick concepts in that offense now.
- 1:49:25And it might be tough with a new coordinator to remember no Liam
- 1:49:28Cohen anymore. So they're going to try to
- 1:49:29adjust now the third coordinator in three years to a more quicker
- 1:49:33offense. I disagree.
- 1:49:35I. Charlie in this season, it's
- 1:49:36only four games and again, Baker Mayfield is a guy that is a
- 1:49:41mobile. He's not super speed like Lamar
- 1:49:44Jackson. They have a tremendous amount of
- 1:49:46offensive talent. They can run the ball.
- 1:49:48They have two capable running backs.
- 1:49:51I know true. I know worth is one of the
- 1:49:53better offensive line tackles in in the league.
- 1:49:56I do believe that Tampa is very talented offensively and they
- 1:50:00got guys that can, you know, move into the slot.
- 1:50:03I, I expect them to use two guys in the slot a lot this year,
- 1:50:07Short passes, quick passes. I expect that's how they're
- 1:50:10going to run their offense. I, I, it's going to hurt them a
- 1:50:13little bit, not by much. They're the best team in that
- 1:50:15division. I don't even think you can argue
- 1:50:17it so. Chava.
- 1:50:20You know, we talked about the. The big fellas that protect
- 1:50:23everybody. And we all are fans of
- 1:50:26quarterback play when they're doing well.
- 1:50:28I don't think people realize just how important your
- 1:50:32teammates are sometimes to make you look good.
- 1:50:34And I think as a baseball player, I always wonder, you
- 1:50:37know, with pitchers, how important you feel your catcher
- 1:50:40is. And I think it's a very similar
- 1:50:41relationship between quarterback and blind side protector.
- 1:50:45What what what about you and your career with the catchers?
- 1:50:47You know, they're like, how many of them you think made you
- 1:50:49better? And I mean, we know we we taught
- 1:50:52you to mention Javi Lopez last show.
- 1:50:54I don't think Greg Maddox ever pitched him.
- 1:50:56I think he pitched to Eddie Perez.
- 1:50:58It's like it was it was before and then, but Eddie Perez didn't
- 1:51:02call the game. Greg Maddox called his own game.
- 1:51:04So the way Greg Maddox caught the ball was the pitch.
- 1:51:07Eddie Perez didn't call the game.
- 1:51:09Greg called it the way he caught.
- 1:51:11So if he wanted to throw a certain pitch, he'd catch it
- 1:51:13like this, like this, closer to his chest or walking.
- 1:51:16Back to the. Mouth, Greg called it from the
- 1:51:18game. The dude's stupid intelligent.
- 1:51:20Like, sure. No.
- 1:51:21No catcher. So before Eddie Perez now he's
- 1:51:24obviously the the bullpen coach now, but how he was the personal
- 1:51:27catcher before because that's like he he was like a Jose.
- 1:51:31Molina. Like couldn't hit worth a shit
- 1:51:35but could receive and catch and now that's why they're doing all
- 1:51:38the one legged stuff because now it's not throwing runners out,
- 1:51:41it's framing and getting pitch calling which we've seen.
- 1:51:45Horrible umpire, but so your question is is is.
- 1:51:48We've seen how. That's played out in multiple
- 1:51:50sports, guys taking your blind side.
- 1:51:53Why? Did Tom Brady always pay his
- 1:51:56guys more to protect his butt because he was like.
- 1:51:59I'm going to play. Longer be.
- 1:52:01This. Because I'm paying these guys
- 1:52:02longer. It was, it was always nice.
- 1:52:05And I had some really, really great defensive catchers.
- 1:52:09I mean, my first hit her in the big leagues I shook off.
- 1:52:12Jorge. Because I didn't want to throw
- 1:52:13the pitch. He called.
- 1:52:14I'll never forget it. And I don't never let him let it
- 1:52:18down when when I see him. I was like, yeah, I shook you
- 1:52:20off. And you've never, ever caught me
- 1:52:22before. But I had Russell Martin, Jose
- 1:52:24Molina, Francisco Cervelli, Chad Mohler, like just really, really
- 1:52:28great defensive catchers. And it's nice.
- 1:52:33Before it was all plug plug it in pitch com where you knew you
- 1:52:38were on the same. Page.
- 1:52:39Where it's like, all right, he's going to call fastball in and
- 1:52:42you knew and it just I. Loved working.
- 1:52:44Fast anyways and so that relationship I think between
- 1:52:48the. Front.
- 1:52:49Guys and like catchers is very, very similar, like you said,
- 1:52:53because once you're on the same page and know you can run a
- 1:52:56certain play or a certain scheme or I can pitch this guy a
- 1:52:59certain way, know that he's going to block it and I can bury
- 1:53:01some pitch. It's four games or I can kind of
- 1:53:03escape. It's what's that?
- 1:53:04It's four games. I.
- 1:53:06Think I obviously at least four games it's knee surgery.
- 1:53:09They don't they didn't say what it was.
- 1:53:10It's a fix a knee surgery. Atlanta.
- 1:53:12What is Atlanta's schedule like? I mean not Atlanta, Tampa Bay,
- 1:53:14Tampa. What is Tampa's schedule for the
- 1:53:17first it's but they're fixing a previous surgery, right?
- 1:53:20No, this is the his first surgery didn't work, so he needs
- 1:53:23another one and that you don't know how he's going to recover.
- 1:53:26It's at least four games a minimum.
- 1:53:29Their first four games. Their first game is.
- 1:53:31Against the Falcons, on the road, second game on the road
- 1:53:34against the Texans and at home against The Jets, home against
- 1:53:37the Eagles. They're gonna win.
- 1:53:38They're gonna win 2 out of those 4.
- 1:53:39Games so but you got to remember once you.
- 1:53:42Get in there, you don't know the.
- 1:53:43Amount of scar tissue that's that's in there, once you get in
- 1:53:46there sometimes, like it's, it stinks.
- 1:53:49Yeah, it's it's gonna be a problem.
- 1:53:50For me like. As I just know as a left tackle,
- 1:53:52I played left tackle. It's all about like if there's a
- 1:53:55guy who's a wide rusher, the quarterback knows how the left
- 1:53:58tackle likes to play him so he knows how to get out of the
- 1:54:00pocket. And that's something that you
- 1:54:02don't really think about too often.
- 1:54:03Like it's easy, easy to navigate the pocket when you know what
- 1:54:06you guys in front of you do to different types of techniques
- 1:54:09you're facing that you can see pre snap.
- 1:54:11So let's move on to the last one here before we get out.
- 1:54:15Actually, we'll go through these quickly.
- 1:54:17Just quickly. Edge edge rusher Dallas Turner
- 1:54:19got ripped off for just under $250,000.
- 1:54:22I got ripped off in almost the exact same way.
- 1:54:25Errol, when I first started on the show, it was through someone
- 1:54:28scamming you with like a wire fraud.
- 1:54:31They it was from JP Morgan Chase bank.
- 1:54:34Same way that happened to me and then I never got my money back.
- 1:54:39I only lost just under 2000. He lost 250,000.
- 1:54:43I lost 80 KA couple of years ago.
- 1:54:45I don't want don't don't cry, cry me a river.
- 1:54:48This guy's got millions and millions of dollars.
- 1:54:50I'll tell you what, how stupid could you is a rookie.
- 1:54:52How stupid can you be? I, I, you have all these
- 1:54:55accountants, you have all these people running your money and
- 1:54:58working your money. How could you do something like
- 1:55:00how could you put your money in a situation where you're going
- 1:55:02to get yourself, you know, bankrupt?
- 1:55:05I've seen this before. I've seen this happened many,
- 1:55:07many times before. Let me let me read to you how
- 1:55:10how it went. It said someone on February
- 1:55:1219th. According to affidavit, Turner,
- 1:55:16the the bank said say they claim someone was trying to attempt to
- 1:55:19impersonate Turner at the bank branch in Arizona presented 2
- 1:55:24copies of ID to execute a wire transfer.
- 1:55:27Then they called Turner and instructed him to transfer money
- 1:55:32through the from the bank branches to do it.
- 1:55:36So it it was like this huge scam.
- 1:55:38He was a victim of a fraud scam. There's so much of that out
- 1:55:42there. You've got to be.
- 1:55:44I mean, I don't even answer text messages that have anything.
- 1:55:48They're using AI to use your voice to.
- 1:55:51They're doing so many things now.
- 1:55:53There's so many ways that you can fraudulently hurt or take,
- 1:55:57take money from somebody, fight with AI.
- 1:55:59It is very scary. So you can't trust anybody on
- 1:56:02the phone with you or reaching out to you.
- 1:56:04Keep it in the mattresses, boys. Back to the mattresses, I guess.
- 1:56:07I guess last one, Eli Manning turned down a stake in Giants
- 1:56:13ownership due to the price. He also had some interesting
- 1:56:17comments about it. He said that, oh, he didn't
- 1:56:19really want to be an owner because he does a lot of
- 1:56:22television and broadcasting and he wouldn't be able to get to go
- 1:56:26inside the other locker rooms and learn from the guys very
- 1:56:31similar to Tom Brady who can't do those things.
- 1:56:35I think it was one of many shots that Eli likes to take.
- 1:56:39I will say this, I'm sorry to cut you off, but the whole Tom
- 1:56:43Brady story, Tom Brady didn't have to throw too much money to
- 1:56:47get 10% of of the Raiders because Davis is desperate.
- 1:56:52He was desperate for money. Now, I don't know about
- 1:56:55Marrotish. I don't know if they're
- 1:56:58desperate, but I can tell you right now they're overcharging
- 1:57:01the Giants as an organization because the Giants organization
- 1:57:05being that they're in New York and they've won four Super Bowls
- 1:57:09in in about 40 years, they're saying, hey, you know what?
- 1:57:12We've won championships. We're the ones that knocked off
- 1:57:15the Patriots on that undefeated season.
- 1:57:17And oh, by the way, you were the quarterback when you did those
- 1:57:20and when you had those runs. So I I think honestly, Eli
- 1:57:24Manning, he didn't want to put the money.
- 1:57:26He didn't want to throw all that money.
- 1:57:28I don't know how much it was, but I'm sure it was worth
- 1:57:31probably five, $600 million. I don't think he wants to throw
- 1:57:34all his shekels for, you know, in the money for the Giants,
- 1:57:37especially the organization run by Joe Shane and how bad the
- 1:57:41organization has been since he slept.
- 1:57:43And by the way, let me ask the organization when the
- 1:57:46organization allowed, yes Ben McAdoo do to let to let Geno
- 1:57:53Smith play in front of him and ruin his stream as as far as his
- 1:57:57streak for games. So if I was Eli Manning, I would
- 1:58:00be pissed off at the organization and tell the
- 1:58:02organization to kiss my rear end after what the the organization
- 1:58:06did, taking Tom Coughlin away from the organization when all
- 1:58:09they had to do was add defensive players when they brought Ben
- 1:58:11McAdoo in and help them maybe win a third Super Bowl in a
- 1:58:15significant amount of time. I think the if I was, I would
- 1:58:19be, if I was Eli Manning, I would be butthurt for all the
- 1:58:21things the organization has done to him after the fact.
- 1:58:24He was the Super Bowl world champion.
- 1:58:26It's it's hard to argue with that.
- 1:58:28Just one last thing before we get out of this guys.
- 1:58:32We said it on the last show. Apparently Najee Harris didn't
- 1:58:35listen and in on July 4th had a fireworks accident hurt his eye.
- 1:58:42They say they're superficial and injuries and he'll be ready for
- 1:58:46camp. And that has been your whip
- 1:58:49around I'm. Not.
- 1:58:50Surprised and you're you're not going to hear this last or the
- 1:58:55craziest stories with people playing with fireworks,
- 1:58:58especially multi millionaires that should stay the hell away
- 1:59:01from these. By the way, I was at I was at a
- 1:59:04party I was DJ ING at and I was walking into the backyard
- 1:59:08getting ready to DJ and this guy like put like tied 2
- 1:59:12blockbusters together and lit him on fire in a bottle.
- 1:59:17And dude, the bottle, half the bottle was like literally like 3
- 1:59:22inches away from hitting my head.
- 1:59:23OK. And I was walking in the
- 1:59:25backyard. I was furiated before the party
- 1:59:27even started. So it's dangerous.
- 1:59:31You're playing away, you're playing around with TNT and
- 1:59:35anything could happen. You don't know how, how long
- 1:59:38the, what do they call those? The Wicks.
- 1:59:42You don't know how long the Wicks are before they're going
- 1:59:45to explode and how quick they're going to light up.
- 1:59:47So it's dangerous. You don't play around with,
- 1:59:50especially when you're making millions and millions of dollars
- 1:59:52and you have your family's hands, your family's lives in
- 1:59:56your hands. It's literally your, your
- 1:59:58family's life in your hand. So I just think it's, it's
- 2:00:02ridiculously crazy. That's just my opinion.
- 2:00:05Hey, Errol. So we got we got our buddy Nick
- 2:00:08goodies in. We're going to bring Nick in a
- 2:00:09second and we're going to put Tic Tac no after our guest and
- 2:00:12we're going to get into, since our relievers are both here,
- 2:00:16we're going to make, I believe a call to the pen a call.
- 2:00:21It's done. You can throw.
- 2:00:23A strike on. This pitch, it's not going to be
- 2:00:24my John it Mark feels like jello.
- 2:00:26Right. Now just get it over the plate.
- 2:00:28I want him to swing last time. I did that.
- 2:00:29The guy hit. One that hasn't landed yet.
- 2:00:31For a call to the pen. This makes my pecker all right.
- 2:00:38You've gotten. Really good with those like.
- 2:00:40Adding them on to the end of the drops, I had to take a shit.
- 2:00:48Boys, we are making a call to the end.
- 2:00:50To talk about All Star Games as we know we're coming up on
- 2:00:54Tuesday. Want to hear your guys
- 2:00:56experience over the years at the different levels you've played
- 2:00:59that with All Star Games and some stories if you have you
- 2:01:02know from All Star weekend if he attended This is not a panty
- 2:01:05dropper. Participate in the majors.
- 2:01:07Jaba, you said you were. In the Futures Game, Nick, I
- 2:01:09didn't get to talk to you pre show, but like to hear what you
- 2:01:12guys have to say. We get some music on at least
- 2:01:15start off with Mr. Chamberlain. Oh yeah, no, it's, I mean we.
- 2:01:20Played in plenty. Of All Star games as as we grew
- 2:01:22up. But yeah, it was it was weird.
- 2:01:24I got, I got the call to the Futures Game and I was in Akron,
- 2:01:29OH. And they're like, hey.
- 2:01:32And I obviously didn't pay attention to it because I didn't
- 2:01:35really know much about it. And they're like, hey, yeah,
- 2:01:39you. And Tony?
- 2:01:40Franklin, who was my manager at the time, they're like, yeah,

- 2:02:16that. Goba is not an athlete, but.

- 2:02:30stuff this and then when we got there I was like we got to our
- 2:02:33room and it was crazy. And then we got.
- 2:02:37Like putters, we got all kinds of stuff, but people don't
- 2:02:40realize the All Star game is a lot like, no matter if it's like
- 2:02:43Home Run Derby, Celebrity game, Futures Game, All Star Game
- 2:02:47because you want to sign everything for everybody so.
- 2:02:49You literally like. Sign for everything.
- 2:02:51You got meetings at like 7:00. You got to do all these things
- 2:02:55and then. It's like.
- 2:02:56Well, I want to see like. Home Run Derby, I want to see
- 2:02:59like, you know, it's you just never know.
- 2:03:01And, you know, then you get all the parties and all the other
- 2:03:05stuff and you're like, you know, I want to experience because you
- 2:03:08never know. If you're ever.
- 2:03:09Going to get this chance again and I actually that would that
- 2:03:14that game I there was a bird on the.
- 2:03:17Field I got. It I got it off the field and I
- 2:03:21actually got voted best fastball of of that Futures Game and then
- 2:03:25I was in the big three months later.
- 2:03:28So yeah. You got to taste yourself every.
- 2:03:32Once in a while. Now I'm just old and crusty.
- 2:03:33The Gray hair dog. Yeah, you got.
- 2:03:39To do it, you got to do it. I wasn't quick enough with the.
- 2:03:42Screenshot on that one. Goody.
- 2:03:45How about you give us some of yours?
- 2:03:46On this one. Bro, I was home.
- 2:03:50For every All Star game. Well, when you were younger, and
- 2:03:52I'm saying like. At different.
- 2:03:53Levels I made the double, AI made the double.
- 2:03:56A All Stars and didn't get, I didn't get to go to it because I
- 2:04:00got called up to AAA. So it was in Portland.
- 2:04:03I was with Trenton, made the All Star team.
- 2:04:07I had a stellar like first half told me I was an All Star.
- 2:04:10I was like all right, sick. And then like a week before the
- 2:04:13All Star game, I got called up to Scranton AAA for New York.
- 2:04:18And then everybody that went to the All Star game apparently got
- 2:04:20food poisoning. So I've dodged a bullet there,
- 2:04:24which was tight. And then two nights ago, we've
- 2:04:27had our Florida Collegiate Summer League All Star game.
- 2:04:30I got the coach in that ended in a tie, but but most All Star
- 2:04:33breaks I was sitting at the beach and, you know, having a
- 2:04:36few brews. And.
- 2:04:38I remember 1 All Star game Brad Hamm was there, I Facetimed him
- 2:04:40while he was there at the Home Run Derby.
- 2:04:42So that was kind of dope. Got the got to like live
- 2:04:44vicariously through him for, I don't know, 20 minutes.
- 2:04:48God he was. He was nasty for a couple years
- 2:04:50man Wow. Yeah, he's, Yeah, he's.
- 2:04:53He's one of my good. Friends.
- 2:04:55I mean, he's freaking yeah. Here's a lot.
- 2:04:57He was fun. He was fun as well, Woody.
- 2:05:00Yeah. Hey, that that.
- 2:05:02Year. That year.
- 2:05:03Fish. So I had just had Carter.
- 2:05:06Right. And I wanted to come home, so I.
- 2:05:09Left. I left a day early.
- 2:05:10I didn't stay for the All Star game.
- 2:05:12I came home and my agent called me.
- 2:05:15And. I'm in.
- 2:05:15I'm in AA at the time and I signed the highest.
- 2:05:20At. The time minor league.
- 2:05:21Endorsement. Deal at $100,000 at an
- 2:05:24Applebee's. Applebee's were you eating?
- 2:05:26Good in the neighborhood. Then oh hey, no, I was still
- 2:05:29trying to get the appetizer menu son.
- 2:05:32I was only making, you know, 400 bucks a month.
- 2:05:35So they had those riblets back in those days. 100%.
- 2:05:38Funny story, I got called up to AA and I was getting paid first
- 2:05:44year salary and it didn't change for a while and goody knows this
- 2:05:48as well. You get paid as you go up but in
- 2:05:51your first year you make the same amount.
- 2:05:53So I get called up to AA and I get my first paycheck.
- 2:05:58Well, I get a call and they're like, hey, we.
- 2:06:02Overpaid you? So I actually had to pay in on
- 2:06:04my first paycheck to AA because they overpaid me.
- 2:06:07That's. Quite a joke.
- 2:06:09Yeah, that's. That's.
- 2:06:11Frustrating. I've I've had.
- 2:06:12That happen on a much smaller scale and it's been frustrating
- 2:06:16to me. I was like, I didn't like you
- 2:06:18guys are the one that paid. Me, I was like lucky I.
- 2:06:20I got drafted in the food round. I was like why do I have?
- 2:06:23To pay you like this is stupid. Did you tell?
- 2:06:25Them. There's this.
- 2:06:26You ever hear of Finders Keepers Fast liquor?
- 2:06:28Yeah, well, I. Just there was a.
- 2:06:30Chick that thought she got a 400?
- 2:06:321000. Dollar bonus and spent it on.
- 2:06:33She's in prison though. I like anal, yes.
- 2:06:38Well, let's finish this up. With favorite, if you got
- 2:06:42anybody favorite All Star memories watching as a kid, any
- 2:06:47type of, you know, the things that jump out.
- 2:06:49I know for me, I remember watching Cal Ripken, you know,
- 2:06:52being being taken out, being moved back over the shortstop by
- 2:06:57I believe it was Jeter and a rod.
- 2:06:58That's like one of those really special moments.
- 2:07:00I no, it was a rod with the Rangers and Tori was the
- 2:07:04manager. It was a right.
- 2:07:05I just remember it was something with the Yankees involved with
- 2:07:08that. I remember Ripken memorable All
- 2:07:10Star game. I I think it was Tori Hunters
- 2:07:13catch in the outfield and the game ending in a tie.
- 2:07:17I remember that. Remember that.
- 2:07:19I think I was in the 90s. I remember that game at that
- 2:07:24popped out pops out of all the games, mine would be the when.
- 2:07:30Yeah, when he robbed the Homer because it didn't end the game
- 2:07:33as Barry Bonds and then Barry Bonds picked him up as he was
- 2:07:36running back in the field. That game 2002, 2002 was the 77
- 2:07:42tie. Yes, that was the game that
- 2:07:44stuck out to me more than anything.
- 2:07:46And Tory Hunter's unbelievable grab.
- 2:07:49There was AI remember the game and he makes this unbelievable
- 2:07:53catch. How special was that guy?
- 2:07:55Mine was 2. Mine was 2008.
- 2:07:57Goody, you can go after me. Mine was 2008 because I was
- 2:08:01hosting All Star Weekend that year.
- 2:08:04I hosted the MLB. Party.
- 2:08:06And then I hosted another party with Alyssa Milano, and then I
- 2:08:09was at Webster Hall. At 11th.
- 2:08:11And 3rd, that was your favorite party the whole All Star game,
- 2:08:14by the way, Melissa Milano No, it wasn't.
- 2:08:16No, it it. Actually wasn't.
- 2:08:18Because that's the year it went into extra and didn't even have
- 2:08:22a party and so. Yeah.
- 2:08:25So we we had it at Tao. We had a bunch and I was hosting
- 2:08:29and it was it was awesome. It was fun.
- 2:08:30I DJ Ed at Tao, it was fun time and so.
- 2:08:34That for me. Was.
- 2:08:35Like I mean. Obviously the one that you're
- 2:08:37in, you get to see and be on the field and do all that.
- 2:08:39That was fun. But hosting and doing all that I
- 2:08:42did. Like the?
- 2:08:43Whole weekend with everything and I was like, I'm a year and a
- 2:08:47half in the big leagues and I'm hosting all this and I'm just a
- 2:08:50fat kid from Lincoln, NE. I was like, this is all right.
- 2:08:54Goody finishes up. He takes my favorite, my
- 2:08:59favorite. All Star thing was Josh
- 2:09:01Hamilton's home. Run Derby when he hit what?
- 2:09:0426 or 27? Homers get it.
- 2:09:08Yeah, and then and. Then Errol tried to say he.
- 2:09:10Won, but he didn't win the. He put on an absolute show and I
- 2:09:17just remember pull the day with my grandpa watching, watching
- 2:09:21the watching the spectacular performance he put on.
- 2:09:25And so that that to me was the dopest Home Run Derby, All Star
- 2:09:31game because I didn't know really who Josh Hamilton was
- 2:09:34prior to that, you know, but he became one of my favorite
- 2:09:39players after that. How about you know who won that
- 2:09:42year? Who was it?
- 2:09:44Nobody knows. Justin Morgan, Canadian.
- 2:09:47Yeah. Like, yeah, nobody.
- 2:09:48It's he won. He won because that's why people
- 2:09:51talk about who actually won. They'll remember Josh.
- 2:09:54I will. Say this.
- 2:09:55Do you remember Aaron Judge Home Run Derby when he hit the top of
- 2:09:59like it was in Tampa, I think it was in Tampa if I'm not
- 2:10:01mistaken. Oh, hit the ceiling and hit the
- 2:10:03ceiling. Yeah.
- 2:10:04It was unbelievable. And yeah, he hit it like 3
- 2:10:08times. You know, it's, it was
- 2:10:11ridiculous. So and John Carlo Stanton, I, I
- 2:10:14mean, the bombs that he had at the Home Run Derby, I mean, one
- 2:10:17of them was like 500 feet or something, 550 feet, some
- 2:10:21ridiculous numbers. So I mean that guy, when he gets
- 2:10:24a hold of them, it's scary. I still remember as a kid the
- 2:10:27Ken Griffey junior one where he had the hat backwards the whole
- 2:10:30time and he was just launching him with that beautiful swing.
- 2:10:33But guys, we get to watch those next week.
- 2:10:36Thanks for giving us some insight on a call to the pen.
- 2:10:40All right, ladies and gentlemen, before we get our guest and our
- 2:10:422nd guest and I'm looking forward to getting him on
- 2:10:45because I'm sure he has his thoughts to the Phoenix Suns
- 2:10:48trading away the one and only Kevin the Twitter event.
- 2:10:54You know, I, I don't even say Durant the event.
- 2:10:56So he was at Fanatic Fest when he found out that he was getting
- 2:10:59traded to the Houston Rockets. We'll have Kevin Ray on the show
- 2:11:03and the Cowboys as they land their second obstacle course man
- 2:11:08himself, George Pickens. And I heard CD Lamb come out and
- 2:11:12say some interesting things about adding George Pickens, but
- 2:11:17we'll have him on in just a few moments.
- 2:11:19But first, our second sports minute this is.
- 2:11:25The Jabba and the mouth. Sportsman ads.
- 2:11:29All right, guys, Iron fisherman here.
- 2:11:30Back with. Another sportsman.
- 2:11:32It got a few stories before we get into the baseball scores
- 2:11:35this evening. The Oklahoma City Thunder have
- 2:11:37now given Max extensions to all members of their big Three core
- 2:11:42of Shay Giljus. Alexander.
- 2:11:43Last week Chet Holmgren yesterday and now today Jalen
- 2:11:47Williams got his bag. Sham Sharani reports that the
- 2:11:50OKC Thunder have given Jalen Williams the five year rookie
- 2:11:53Max extension which can reach $287,000,000.
- 2:11:58Chet Steel can reach 250 million and Shay's four year extension
- 2:12:02is worth 285,000,000 as well. This keeps the trio together
- 2:12:06through the rest of the decade as the reigning MVP and Envy and
- 2:12:11Finals MVP. Gilgus Alexander is just 26
- 2:12:13years old, while Williams is 23 and Holmgren is 22.
- 2:12:18OKC are the defending champs and may only just be scratching the
- 2:12:22surface of how good they're going to be.
- 2:12:24On the second season of the Netflix documentary show,
- 2:12:27quarterback Joe Burrow discussed his long desired plan to buy a
- 2:12:31Batmobile. In fact, Burrow first spoke on
- 2:12:34this obsession during last year's Hard Knocks In season,
- 2:12:37which focused on the AFC North. The reason?
- 2:12:40A string of robberies that Burrow was a victim of last
- 2:12:43year. I didn't end up getting the
- 2:12:44Batmobile because I just had other things I wanted to deal
- 2:12:47with at that point. Girl spoke of the incident that
- 2:12:50led him to rethink his purchase. I just get very uncomfortable.
- 2:12:53My life is very public. That comes with the job, but
- 2:12:55there's certain parts of your life that are yours.
- 2:12:57Your house is one of those. The Batmobile, which would have
- 2:13:01been a $3,000,000 purchase, probably should have been bought
- 2:13:05for the Bengals defense regardless as Trey Hendrickson
- 2:13:08and first round pick Shamar Stewart, their two edge rushers,
- 2:13:11are still without contract for self-inflicted reasons.
- 2:13:14They are going to need all sorts of tricks and gadgets only
- 2:13:17Batman would have that are going to be good enough to stop
- 2:13:19literally anyone next year. And Oakland A's outfielder Slash
- 2:13:24DH Brent Rooker was added to the Home Run Derby earlier today.
- 2:13:28Rooker is hitting 270 with 19 homers and 50 RBI, said on
- 2:13:31Instagram. Competing in the Home Run Derby
- 2:13:33has always been a dream of mine. Can't wait to make it happen
- 2:13:37next week in Atlanta. See you there.
- 2:13:39Rooker hit 39 homers in 2024 and is on pace for his third
- 2:13:43straight 30 home run season. The field is now complete that
- 2:13:46Rooker joins containing hometown hero Ronald Lacuna, junior home
- 2:13:51run leader Cal, the big dumper, Raleigh Yankees, eclectic
- 2:13:54infielder Jazz Chisholm, junior Byron Buxton, junior Caminero
- 2:13:59O'Neill Cruz and James Wood. Buxton did miss.

- 2:16:03making the mucho De Niro. We are now talking to Phoenix
- 2:16:06Suns and Dallas Cowboys play by play broadcaster, our friend
- 2:16:12Kevin Ray. Kevin, my friend, what's up
- 2:16:16chance? How we doing today?
- 2:16:17Well, you look good, man. I mean, seriously.
- 2:16:20Your hair is growing again. I mean, that's good.
- 2:16:22You're looking like you're you have a brighter smile.
- 2:16:25I mean, Kevin Durant is gone. We'll get into them just a few
- 2:16:28moments. And by the way, the Cowboys
- 2:16:30finally land another offensive weapon.
- 2:16:34We'll see how this works out as he's another, you know, hard
- 2:16:38person to get along with. And Mr. George Pickens, let's go
- 2:16:41first with basketball because the Phoenix Suns just gave the
- 2:16:45one and only, you know, their superstar a lot of money.
- 2:16:49They gave him a, a big contract. What was it?
- 2:16:52A two years, 140 as there's a lot of people that thought he
- 2:16:57could be on his way out. Well, they paid him.
- 2:17:00So hopefully keeps him there or keeps him happy for the next two
- 2:17:03years. And then before that ever
- 2:17:06happened, they had to get rid of a contract.
- 2:17:08They had to get rid of the big mouth himself and Kevin Durant.
- 2:17:12What were your thoughts to the move sending Kevin Durant to
- 2:17:15Houston and then the $140 million contract?
- 2:17:18Yeah, you know, I'll start first.
- 2:17:21With the. The trade of Kevin Durant nobody
- 2:17:25was surprised. It was pretty much expected
- 2:17:28dating back to the trade deadline when the Suns attempted
- 2:17:32to move KD back then and at that time Houston was among the teams
- 2:17:38that they had some preliminary conversations with.
- 2:17:41Did not come to fruition, but considering the the struggle the
- 2:17:47Suns had the season didn't even make the play in.
- 2:17:50And more importantly, considering the the second
- 2:17:52apron, the tax that they were going to be hit with and a team
- 2:17:56that you know, they gave it their best shot with Kevin
- 2:17:59Durant, Bradley Beal, Devin Booker, the big three.
- 2:18:02It just never panned out for a variety of reasons, certainly
- 2:18:06not all on the shoulders of Kevin Durant.
- 2:18:08But you can't continue to pay that kind of money and certainly
- 2:18:11that kind of tax without, you know, getting some wins.
- 2:18:15And they were not able to do that.
- 2:18:16You know, didn't didn't win a playoff series with that trio.
- 2:18:20So the trade did not come as a surprise.
- 2:18:23You know, I think that there was some initial feelings that maybe
- 2:18:27Miami would get in there, but Miami really never gave the Suns
- 2:18:32enough value in return. You know, when you look at the
- 2:18:35overall trade, it was a good deal.
- 2:18:38A lot of people were really holding on hope that maybe
- 2:18:41Phoenix would somehow be able to get Terry Eason, Jabari Smith
- 2:18:46and, you know, one of those two guys, some young, long, athletic
- 2:18:50wings. But that was not going to happen
- 2:18:53because unfortunately, the Suns did lose a little leverage when
- 2:18:56that deal in February did not go through and the Rockets, big at
- 2:19:00the top of the list, knew that. But I think All in all,
- 2:19:03everything considered, the Suns got pretty good value out of it,
- 2:19:06especially when you consider getting that number 10 pick and
- 2:19:09you get him on Malawatch as a result.
- 2:19:11Yeah, I was going to ask about the coaching end of it too,
- 2:19:13because there was. A lot of thoughts that Kevin
- 2:19:15Durant and Mike Boonholzer wasn't getting along.
- 2:19:17Bradley Beal and Mike Boonholzer weren't getting along.
- 2:19:19He goes and now they bring in a younger guy and Jordan off from
- 2:19:21the Cavaliers, who obviously they won the number one seed in
- 2:19:24the East. So what are your impressions of
- 2:19:26him so far and what do you think the Sun's trajectory look like
- 2:19:28trying to get younger? Well, I think first and
- 2:19:32foremost, you. You.
- 2:19:33Said it it was a team that needed an influx of both youth
- 2:19:37and athleticism, something that they were sorely lacking over
- 2:19:41the last couple of years and you know as a result getting again,
- 2:19:45you know, Mallow watch getting the additional pieces they did
- 2:19:49the trade moving up, getting Rasheer Fleming.
- 2:19:52You got Kobe Brea. I think when you look at the
- 2:19:55draft, the sun's really I, I thought in fact, many of the
- 2:19:58grades gave them anywhere from an A to AB plus.
- 2:20:02So I thought they did a really nice job getting younger,
- 2:20:05getting more aggressive and as a result, you know, or as it
- 2:20:09speaks to Jordan, not the Suns new head coach, I'm excited
- 2:20:12about it. I think you can look at what
- 2:20:14Cleveland did this past season. Both offensively and
- 2:20:19defensively, you look at the personnel that Sons have got now
- 2:20:22and I can see Jordan obviously stealing some of those
- 2:20:25principles from Kenny Atkinson. One of the things that that was
- 2:20:29really hard for Suns fans to watch over the last season and a
- 2:20:32half especially was just the lack of of overall ball
- 2:20:35movement. And I think with this group and
- 2:20:37with Jordan not, you're going to see, you know, a lot of player
- 2:20:40movement, a lot of ball movement.
- 2:20:41And then defensively, you know, one thing they've said is they
- 2:20:44they want dogs. They they want guys who are
- 2:20:46going to get into people and defend.
- 2:20:48And that's music of the years of Suns fans because we just have
- 2:20:51not seen enough of it over the last two seasons.
- 2:20:54Yeah. And Kevin, you like always, the
- 2:20:55draft is a. Crapshoot.
- 2:20:56We all know that and and and how it works like and we've talked.
- 2:21:02About this on the show before too do.
- 2:21:03You think they addressed what they needed and do you think
- 2:21:08there's anything else that they need and, and who do you think
- 2:21:11did a really good job on their draft and filling those voids of
- 2:21:14what they had? Yeah, No, I I think they did a.
- 2:21:17Really nice job. And you're, you're absolutely
- 2:21:19right. You look, whether it's the NFL
- 2:21:21draft, the NBA draft, there, there's no exact science.
- 2:21:24You know, you found throughout the years, you know, second
- 2:21:27round guys who become, you know, big time positional players,
- 2:21:31rotational players, impact players.
- 2:21:34And I do feel like the Suns have gotten themselves a couple guys
- 2:21:39in that second round that could be solid rotational guys.
- 2:21:44Again, Fleming, I mean, big wingspan with 74.
- 2:21:49Malawat, you know, he's 71. He's got a massive wingspan.
- 2:21:52So I think that this draft, when you look at it, Brian Gregory,
- 2:21:56the entire scouting staff has done a marvellous job.
- 2:22:00And then now it's up to Jordan Knott and his coaching staff
- 2:22:02that's still being pieced together, you know, to, to find
- 2:22:07the right way to make these guys work.
- 2:22:09And, you know, I, I don't want to forget about the the two
- 2:22:12young guys who played roles last season, Ryan Dunn and Oso
- 2:22:16Iguodaro. They'll get massive minutes here
- 2:22:18during the summer league and an opportunity to kind of show what
- 2:22:21they've been working on, what they've improved upon.
- 2:22:23And those two guys will be solid rotational players as well.
- 2:22:27Kevin, I mentioned Devin Booker. And he he just got a big
- 2:22:30contract, $70 million a year. He's highest paid basketball
- 2:22:34player in the NBA right now. Singly every single year.
- 2:22:38I and I think Devin Booker's a guy that a lot of people are
- 2:22:41going to be interested in, especially if Phoenix falls
- 2:22:44behind early in the season and might not even be a playoff
- 2:22:47contender at the trade deadline. Remember, it's only a two year
- 2:22:51deal. He is making a significant
- 2:22:53amount of money. I mean, Devin Booker is one of
- 2:22:55the best twos in the NBI. Don't think you can argue.
- 2:22:57I argue that he's one of the best shooters in the league.
- 2:23:00The guy can stretch the floor better than anybody can,
- 2:23:04especially in the Western Conference besides Steph Curry.
- 2:23:06Who's better? Who's better than Devin Booker?
- 2:23:08I mean, he's sensational. Do you see Phoenix moving him
- 2:23:12still? Even if they extended him for
- 2:23:14the two years, if they fall behind this coming season, do
- 2:23:18you think they can move him? No, no.
- 2:23:21Look. And keep in mind that that
- 2:23:23extension was eligible. So he's essentially inked
- 2:23:26through 2030. So he's, he's locked up for the
- 2:23:30next 5 years and Book has, has said countless times he wants to
- 2:23:35be a Phoenix Sun for life. Now we, we know you look at a
- 2:23:38guy like Damian Lillard, you know, everybody thought that
- 2:23:41that would be the case with Dame.
- 2:23:42So we, you know, I understand that things can't happen,
- 2:23:46especially 3-4 years down the road.
- 2:23:48But when you look at this roster, this is not a team
- 2:23:51that's going to contempt for a championship.
- 2:23:53And when you look at the Western Conference overall, they will
- 2:23:57have a hard time, you know, making the playoffs.
- 2:24:01So I, I don't think that this year's record slow start, fast
- 2:24:04start will have any impact on whether the Suns look to move
- 2:24:08Devin Booker. They, you know, Matt Ishvia has
- 2:24:10made a, a made it very clear through both his actions and his
- 2:24:14words, he doesn't want Devin Booker to go anywhere.
- 2:24:17So I think that's the the first thing that the people can kind
- 2:24:20of take off the table is books not going anywhere anytime soon.
- 2:24:24All right, so we, we, we. Talked enough basketball because
- 2:24:28the the big story is the Dallas Cowboys.
- 2:24:30All right, we we all know that the Cowboys over the last couple
- 2:24:35of years, especially the Cowboy fans, Nathan and every single
- 2:24:39Cowboy, whatever you want to call them, America's team, the
- 2:24:43Cowgirls. Now there are a lot of people
- 2:24:46that including yours truly said that Dak Prescott was being
- 2:24:50treated wrong. They don't give them enough
- 2:24:52weapons. They don't give them enough
- 2:24:54people on the edges as far as the wide receiving potential and
- 2:25:00and talent over the years. They added George Pickens.
- 2:25:03That was the guy that they added in the offseason.
- 2:25:06They got him for practically nothing, honestly, and this guy
- 2:25:09could be a number one. I watched a video, Kevin, what
- 2:25:13was it a week ago and it was CD Lamb and George Picken.
- 2:25:17They were hanging out in an event I I don't remember, it was
- 2:25:20a it was a baseball or football, flag football events and they
- 2:25:23were getting interviewed and CD Lamb, who I wouldn't have
- 2:25:27thought that would go and and say the things that they he said
- 2:25:31early in the offseason with George pick in there, he said,
- 2:25:35listen there, there's no one A1B.
- 2:25:37It's 1:00 and 1:00, and it's going to be very, very hard to
- 2:25:41defend me and and leave this guy open.
- 2:25:45And it's going to be. Well, didn't he say you have two
- 2:25:47ones now? Yeah, not one A1B.
- 2:25:49You have two ones, one and one. That's what he said.
- 2:25:52There's no 1A and 1B. He said I'm one, he's 1.
- 2:25:56And that's the way we're looking at each other.
- 2:25:58So what are your thoughts that you think this is going to work?
- 2:26:01George Pickens doesn't get along with a lot of people.
- 2:26:04There were stories coming out that him and Mike Tomlin weren't
- 2:26:06getting along. What?
- 2:26:08What a joke. OK, so your thoughts to George
- 2:26:11Pickens working with a new head coach and Brian Schottenheimer?
- 2:26:17Yeah, look, no. 1. Can or will dispute the the just
- 2:26:21immense talent that George Pickens has.
- 2:26:24I mean, when when he is engaged and look that that is I think
- 2:26:29the keyword here. When he is engaged, he is as
- 2:26:33good as any receiver in the NFL. And, you know, I think that's
- 2:26:37why CD Lamb said that. And look, CD three years ago
- 2:26:41would not have made those comments.
- 2:26:42So he is matured greatly. He also understands the need for
- 2:26:48another threat on the other side of the field because teams, you
- 2:26:52know, late last year were really starting to to bracket and try
- 2:26:55to do everything they could to take away CD Lamb, especially
- 2:26:58once DAC went down. Maybe, you know, just created
- 2:27:00all kinds of headaches. But when you consider those two,
- 2:27:04they've got a couple of good tight ends.
- 2:27:07The key is as really it's been the last three years, which is
- 2:27:11the offensive line. You know, what was once the
- 2:27:13strength of the Cowboys has really been, you know, influx
- 2:27:17over the last three seasons. So I think you have to start at
- 2:27:20the the offensive line. You've got a healthy tack, but
- 2:27:24when George Pickens is engaged and when he is healthy, he can
- 2:27:30take the top up defense, he can create all kinds of nightmare
- 2:27:33matchups. So I do believe that he can make
- 2:27:36an impact. But again, you got to give your
- 2:27:39quarterback time to throw the football and and look, the one
- 2:27:42thing I think that the shoddy has made clear with this
- 2:27:45offensive line is that he wants to get back to establishing a
- 2:27:51run game. He knows how important it is
- 2:27:53play action to give DAC, giving them some balance.
- 2:27:58And that's been something that that has been a little bit of a
- 2:28:01challenge. So I look for them to try to
- 2:28:04establish that. Whether they're successful in
- 2:28:07doing so remains to be seen. But if yeah, George Pickens
- 2:28:10could stay engaged and stay locked in and look, it's it's up
- 2:28:16to him to perform because he's playing for another contract.
- 2:28:20So I think I think you have an opportunity to get the best
- 2:28:24version of George Pickens this year, if for no other reason
- 2:28:27because he wants another bag. So the the.
- 2:28:31Rumors. With Micah Parsons, obviously
- 2:28:33Miles Garrett got the big contract.
- 2:28:35TJ Watt is now another big pass rusher looking for a big
- 2:28:37contract. But Micah Parsons, he's got him.
- 2:28:39Trying to get that first one for him being he's a fifth year
- 2:28:42player this year. So what are your thoughts in a
- 2:28:44way that that saga has gone down with the Cowboys?
- 2:28:47Yeah. You know it's.
- 2:28:49It. It is certainly been the the
- 2:28:52topic du jour when it comes to Micah and Jerry and the Cowboys.
- 2:28:56You know, they've they've had numerous discussions and it
- 2:29:00feels like we've, you know, they they keep saying we're close,
- 2:29:03we're close, we're close. I'm not.
- 2:29:05You know, this is not unlike what we saw with Dax deal with C
- 2:29:10DS deal and for whatever reason, you know, the Dallas prefers to
- 2:29:15kind of string these things out. The one thing that you'll hear
- 2:29:19current GMs former GM say, you know, the the the longer you
- 2:29:23wait on these kind of deals, once a guy becomes extension
- 2:29:26eligible, especially a player, the level of Michael Parsons,
- 2:29:30you lock them up because the rates only can continue to go up
- 2:29:36and Miles Garrett's deal is is a perfect example.
- 2:29:39And I think if Dallas is smart, they will get a deal done before
- 2:29:43what deal gets done if it is in Pittsburgh where he stays.
- 2:29:48Because if he ends up signing a deal, that's even bigger.
- 2:29:51Well, now you're talking about Mike and his group saying, OK,
- 2:29:55well, if he's getting this, then I know we, you know, I know we
- 2:29:58were close on this number three weeks ago.
- 2:30:01That number's now changed. It definitely changes, but I I
- 2:30:04wanted to. Touch on something too like
- 2:30:06we've, we've, we've seen what Pickens and obviously now coming
- 2:30:09to CD and CD growing and and like you said, wouldn't have
- 2:30:13said that 2-3 years ago if, if they do that who?
- 2:30:16Who is the guy to? Step in if like you know, we
- 2:30:20we've heard the scuttlebutt about what Pickens has done.
- 2:30:23Is it Schottenheimer to do? Is it CD to step in?
- 2:30:26Is it Mike get to step in even though he doesn't have the
- 2:30:28contract? Like because we, we have to know
- 2:30:31in the clubhouse, in the locker room, like there, it can't
- 2:30:33always lie on the front office. Our coach, we, we have to kind
- 2:30:37of take control. Of what we can control because
- 2:30:41we're. The ones playing, who do you
- 2:30:43think on that team is that person?
- 2:30:45Do it if if things get kind of out of hand a little bit.
- 2:30:50Yeah. Well, look, I, I.
- 2:30:51Think. One of one of DAC's great
- 2:30:55attributes is his leadership ability and, and the way that he
- 2:31:01does it. And so I, I think he would start
- 2:31:06with DAC. I think that CD has emerged and
- 2:31:09grown into being one of those voices in the locker room.
- 2:31:12And yeah, on the defensive side of the ball, you, you start with
- 2:31:16a Micah Parsons as well. You know, they, they've lost
- 2:31:20some of that veteran leadership up on the offensive line.
- 2:31:24And so I, I think you start with those three guys first and
- 2:31:27foremost. And then, you know, again, I, I,
- 2:31:30I do believe that you're going to get the best version of
- 2:31:35George Pickens because of he, he doesn't want to and can't afford
- 2:31:40to do anything to tarnish an image that, you know, was not
- 2:31:46particularly great as he made his exit out of Pittsburgh.
- 2:31:48And, and, you know, as you guys pointed out, Mike Tomlin is his
- 2:31:52always been a player's coach. And if you're getting sideways,
- 2:31:55Mike Tomlin, it, it leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
- 2:31:59But clearly, the Cowboys have felt like they've done their due
- 2:32:02diligence, they've done their homework.
- 2:32:04And right now it's it's up to George Pickens.
- 2:32:07So time will tell. We are talking to Phoenix Suns
- 2:32:10and Dallas. Cowboys play by play broadcaster
- 2:32:12Kevin Ray. He's been a friend of the show
- 2:32:14for a while. He's been on the show multiple
- 2:32:16times and we love him. And we're talking about the
- 2:32:19Cowboys right now. And the cowboy that really
- 2:32:21sticks out to me is Dak Prescott.
- 2:32:23I, I've been a Dak Prescott supporter, I think a lot of
- 2:32:27people are harsh on him. I don't think people give him
- 2:32:29enough credit for what he does on the football field.
- 2:32:32Does he play well in the playoffs?
- 2:32:33How many quarterbacks show up in the playoffs and play well?
- 2:32:36Very few of them. If you look at the past, if you
- 2:32:39look at the last 15 years, there are not many quarterbacks that
- 2:32:42have very good playoff runs. We all know Tom Brady.
- 2:32:45We, we've known Joe Montana to do that.
- 2:32:47Peyton Manning wasn't good. Eli Manning made those runs
- 2:32:50there. There are not many of them.
- 2:32:51And and people forget it wasn't Dak Prescott's fault on why they
- 2:32:55got their butts whipped by the Green Bay Packers.
- 2:32:57It was because Micah Parsons in the Cowboys defense didn't show
- 2:33:00up to that game really, really early in the game.
- 2:33:03And then Jordan Love just absolutely went on this just
- 2:33:06high flying offense that we we haven't seen a Green Bay Packer
- 2:33:09team team do in a very long time, even with Aaron Rodgers.
- 2:33:13The problem here was the offensive side of the ball.
- 2:33:15And they added some big pieces to help DAC Prescott in the
- 2:33:18offseason. One of them actually many of
- 2:33:21them, the running game, Javonte Williams, who was not very good
- 2:33:25over the last couple of years with the Broncos after the
- 2:33:27injury. I think a new scenery over there
- 2:33:30with Dallas. I think it's going to happen.
- 2:33:31Miles Sanders is a guy that's one before he won obviously with
- 2:33:35the Philadelphia Eagles. And then Jaydon or Jayden Blue,
- 2:33:40who I think is going to be a special player.
- 2:33:43Give him a little bit of time. I think they have a running game
- 2:33:45now. George Pickens to help Dak
- 2:33:47Prescott out. Why do you think Dak Prescott
- 2:33:49doesn't get enough credit And do you think that the weapons that
- 2:33:52they added in you offseason? Yes, they need to clean up the
- 2:33:55offensive line. They did in the first round,
- 2:33:57adding a nice offensive lineman. What do you think they need to
- 2:34:00do to help Dak Prescott out, to get him over the hump and maybe
- 2:34:03win a Super Bowl one way or another?
- 2:34:05Yeah, look, I mean when. It comes to the criticism of of
- 2:34:08Dak and, and I've always been a Dak Prescott fan.
- 2:34:13He certainly put up some unbelievable, you know, regular
- 2:34:16season numbers couple of seasons ago right there in the MVP
- 2:34:19conversations. But when you're playing for the
- 2:34:21Cowboys in particular and you you struggle in the playoffs the
- 2:34:27way the team has and you know, quite frankly, DAC has had his
- 2:34:32own struggles in the playoffs. You're you're going to you're
- 2:34:36going to get those shots. It's just the bottom line.
- 2:34:38And when you are playing for that team, you always start your
- 2:34:44career with a bullseye immediately.
- 2:34:46And then when you get the contract and you don't perform
- 2:34:50in those situations and the droughts gone on, as long as it
- 2:34:53has with the Cowboys, those shots, those critics are going
- 2:34:56to continue to get louder and louder.
- 2:34:57So it really is now in the hands of the Cowboys and Dak, Dak
- 2:35:03Prescott. And but like I said, I think
- 2:35:07even in the NFC East, I think this is a team that can improve
- 2:35:12week by week. And I think they've got a chance
- 2:35:14to to at the very least, make things much more difficult for
- 2:35:20their opponents that a lot of people are giving them credit
- 2:35:22for. So Brian Schottenheimer was a
- 2:35:24kind of surprise. Hire for the Cowboys.
- 2:35:25A lot of people thought they were going to go after a bigger
- 2:35:27name coach. He was the only hire we've
- 2:35:30heard. This over the years the Cowboys
- 2:35:31have sometimes. Been a leverage team for other
- 2:35:33teams to hire big name coaches like Sean Payton and guys like
- 2:35:36that. So what are your thoughts to the
- 2:35:37hire of Brian Schottenheimer, who's been an assistant coach
- 2:35:39for a while? And do you really believe, like
- 2:35:41we were saying with CD Lamb and Dak Prescott, sometimes they
- 2:35:43wait too long on these other contracts, even with the
- 2:35:45coaches. Yeah, I think when it comes to.
- 2:35:48To shoddy. Is certainly a surprise.
- 2:35:51I think that everybody thought that because it was the Cowboys
- 2:35:54and because they've gone after big names.
- 2:35:56You had a Mike McCarthy, you know, that it was just assumed
- 2:35:59that they were going to go get another big name or one of, you
- 2:36:02know, like a Ben Johnson, try to go after him.
- 2:36:05The the hot offensive coordinator.
- 2:36:08But Shoddy and DAC Prescott have formed a tremendous both
- 2:36:12personal and professional relationship over the last few
- 2:36:15years with shoddy being in, you know, in house.
- 2:36:19So he knows the personnel, has a good understanding, has a good
- 2:36:22read on the room and the players have a great read on him.
- 2:36:25And, and, you know, I think had that not been the case, that Dak
- 2:36:29would have voiced some concern and saying, I'm not sure he's
- 2:36:33the right, you know, he, he can be the QB coach, but I'm not
- 2:36:36sure he's ready to be a head coach.
- 2:36:38And I think what added to the surprise is the fact that he's
- 2:36:42been on nobody's radar. I think as I recall, his last
- 2:36:46head coaching interview came in, you know, 2000, I want to say 13
- 2:36:51or 14. But he's also a guy that really
- 2:36:54pursued other head coaching jobs.
- 2:36:57He's been content in being kind of that, you know, the
- 2:37:00quarterbacks coach, the offensive coordinator, timing
- 2:37:04sometimes, you know, just becomes as much of a factor.
- 2:37:07And, you know, a, a, an individual's reasons also become
- 2:37:13a factor, their motivation. He clearly felt like this was a
- 2:37:16position that was kind of meant and fit for him.
- 2:37:20So you know, remains to be seen. But you know, when when you get
- 2:37:24your starting quarterback, that gives you the green light, that
- 2:37:26goes a long way in making the you know, the the executive
- 2:37:30staff, Jerry Jones, Steven Jones feel good about the decision.
- 2:37:34I I love that you. Say that because.
- 2:37:37It's as as somebody that sees it being in in that realm and you
- 2:37:42covering it and doing that and I, I.
- 2:37:44Wanted. To ask you a question too,
- 2:37:46because it's, it's something that I've always wondered and,
- 2:37:49and I know baseball, I don't know football, I don't know
- 2:37:52basketball because I don't know the intricacies of it.
- 2:37:55But especially when you have guys that are outspoken and you
- 2:37:59have guys that created a relationship with not only the
- 2:38:02front office, but you created a relationship with what DAC and,
- 2:38:06and they've done. Where do you think?
- 2:38:09The. Advice or how you pull in, pry
- 2:38:13back and forth of like what we need to do scheme wise.
- 2:38:16Like do you think it just comes from One Ave. or do you think
- 2:38:20they actually, and we've talked about this with the baseball
- 2:38:22side is like if something goes on, we want to pull our leaders
- 2:38:25in to let them understand like this is what we're going to do.
- 2:38:30Do do they give that right to DAC in those guys?
- 2:38:34Oh yeah, be like this is what we're going to do.
- 2:38:36Yeah. No, it it is.
- 2:38:37It is full. On, you know, especially because
- 2:38:40shoddy has been there. It, it is full on collaboration
- 2:38:44that's awesome between DAC, between CD shoddy and and some
- 2:38:51of the other, you know, I'm guessing at least another one or
- 2:38:54two players. And then also the coaching staff
- 2:38:57because you, you know, when you put that much financially into a
- 2:39:02couple of those players, you have to find the things that it,
- 2:39:06that makes them comfortable. It's it's always one of the
- 2:39:09things that that I found interesting is how coaches you
- 2:39:15know, you'll, you'll get, you'll get a play that might work for
- 2:39:19the guy and for whatever reason, you know, the, the coach will
- 2:39:22move away from it. And I've always been of the
- 2:39:26mindset like, if you find something that works and tell
- 2:39:29the defense shows they can stop it on a consistent basis, keep
- 2:39:33going back to that. And that's, do you ever feel
- 2:39:36like it's it's. A a player that recognizes that
- 2:39:39before a coach or like, is it? I think it yeah, I think it's
- 2:39:42both. I think it's both.
- 2:39:44Because certainly when you're a player, you're on the field,
- 2:39:47you, you may be hearing communications from the defense
- 2:39:49that a coach doesn't. So the the player can relay that
- 2:39:52then to the coach. And then you've also got your,
- 2:39:55your coaches up in the box that may see formations that a coach
- 2:39:59on the sideline can't. So that's why I say it's, it's
- 2:40:02full on collaboration. A a coach might all of a sudden
- 2:40:06get in DAC's headset and say, you know, look, this, this is
- 2:40:09what they're showing. But this is what's happening
- 2:40:12right at the snap. You know, you'll, you'll
- 2:40:14constantly see in certain defenses, they'll give you pre
- 2:40:17snap movement just to try to see what you will do offensively.
- 2:40:21So that that's the give and take through the course of an, you
- 2:40:24know, from an entire game. All right.
- 2:40:27All right, Kevin, before we let. You go all.
- 2:40:29Right. So I know you have your own
- 2:40:31opinion. You are in the the Cowboys are
- 2:40:35in probably the second hardest division in the NFCII, will say
- 2:40:42the North is the hardest. I don't know what Detroit's
- 2:40:45going to be this year. They lost all those coaches, but
- 2:40:47they have a tremendous amount of talent on that roster.
- 2:40:50But they lost a tremendous amount of coaches on that roster
- 2:40:53as well. So, but I expect the Green Bay
- 2:40:55to be good this year. I expect Chicago to be good this
- 2:40:58year, and I expect Minnesota to be good this year.
- 2:41:00But your division is probably the second hardest division
- 2:41:04right now in the NFC. You have Jaden Daniels, you have
- 2:41:07Jalen Hertz, you have a tremendous amount of talent.
- 2:41:11You have the lonely Giants sitting back there.
- 2:41:13We don't know who their starting quarterbacks going to be by Week
- 2:41:177 or Week 8 because Russell Wilson just is an absolute
- 2:41:20debacle as we. Nobody knows, by the way.
- 2:41:22The only thing I like to look about, the only thing I like to
- 2:41:25look at when it comes to Russell Wilson is his wife, Ciara.
- 2:41:28But besides that, Russell Wilson.
- 2:41:29That's it. I mean, I just.
- 2:41:31Want to see her dance? So she's shaking her her rear
- 2:41:33end. That's good enough for me.
- 2:41:35But your opinion right now with the NFC East, who scares you the
- 2:41:39most? The Commanders made a
- 2:41:41significant amount of moves. They added a wide receiver, they
- 2:41:44added some running backs. They added some good defense,
- 2:41:47which they were one of the better defenses in the league
- 2:41:49last year. And Jeremy Tonsil, yes, at
- 2:41:51offensive line. Do they scare you or does the
- 2:41:55Georgia Eagles scare you after winning a Super Bowl?
- 2:42:00Yeah. Look, I, I, I.
- 2:42:01Think that. I think I would have to put them
- 2:42:03both at the top of the list. And, and to your point, yeah,
- 2:42:07Washington made a lot of moves. I, I I'm a huge Dan Quinn fan.
- 2:42:12I really enjoyed the time when he was in Dallas.
- 2:42:15You know, a lot of folks, including myself, was hoping
- 2:42:19that they would have gotten Quinn there in that role two
- 2:42:24years earlier, but that, you know, that that did not
- 2:42:27transpire. But I like what the Washington
- 2:42:30commanders have done. Philadelphia, they've lost in
- 2:42:34pieces. That goes, you know, pretty much
- 2:42:37goes hand in hand. Anytime you win a Super Bowl,
- 2:42:38you're going to lose some pieces.
- 2:42:39But those are those are the two teams.
- 2:42:42And I think, you know, frankly I'm not sure that there is.
- 2:42:46Much. Separation between the two.
- 2:42:49Now you got to get it done on the field.
- 2:42:50Philadelphia did last year. They've shown they have been the
- 2:42:53class of the NFL in the NFCNFC East in particular over the last
- 2:42:58few years. But those two teams are going to
- 2:43:01battle it out. And, you know, if the Cowboys
- 2:43:04can somehow scratch out at least one or two wins against them,
- 2:43:09take care of the Giants, they can find themselves, I think, in
- 2:43:12a potential wild card situation that that that first win with
- 2:43:16the Cowboys. Against Washington.
- 2:43:17Must have been crazy for you to call with that crazy ending.
- 2:43:20That was. Yeah.
- 2:43:22Yeah, it was. One of the wildest games and
- 2:43:26wildest last five minutes I've ever done.
- 2:43:27You know what's the only thing wild right now?
- 2:43:30Wait. Hold on, hold on.
- 2:43:31What is your wildest game? That you you've sat there and
- 2:43:34like, holy crap, like, we've heard this before.
- 2:43:36What is going on? Well, I haven't heard it.
- 2:43:38All right? I'm just telling you, I think
- 2:43:40we've heard this before. Well.
- 2:43:41That one you know even. Though it didn't, you know,
- 2:43:43didn't impact change year to year, you know, a playoff.
- 2:43:46Game or anything? You know, the the the one that
- 2:43:49still, you know, will will always be a catch in my mind was
- 2:43:52Dez and and Green Bay. It should have been ruled a
- 2:43:56catch and and you know, was not. I think in that case, the
- 2:44:00Cowboys advance and I think that was that that was their last
- 2:44:04best team that that could have won a Super Bowl.
- 2:44:07So in that regard, This is why I love you, because I remember.
- 2:44:11Exactly what you said. I remember it was like 2
- 2:44:14interviews ago when we brought that I've Expedia as the
- 2:44:17question and I left because I remember it and I'll I'll never
- 2:44:22forget it and Dez Bryant getting up and just like jumping up in
- 2:44:25the air and, and like cursing to the referees.
- 2:44:28I I Dez Bryant is one of the most unique personalities I've
- 2:44:32ever seen. I would love to.
- 2:44:35I think he's crazy. But the stories remember
- 2:44:38Walmart, remember that Walmart story with his his girlfriend
- 2:44:43and something broke out. I think a fight broke out at
- 2:44:45Walmart and Dez Bryant was in between him and his girlfriend
- 2:44:48and somebody else. I mean, the guy is, is one of
- 2:44:51the funniest unique individual. I never met him.
- 2:44:54You met him. What type of person is Dez
- 2:44:56Bryant? Yeah.
- 2:44:59In in my encounters. With Dez have been, you know,
- 2:45:01brief, typically down the sidelines or whatever, but he's
- 2:45:05he's always been great high energy, you know, positive
- 2:45:09spirit guy. And you know, Dez, Dez is still
- 2:45:14just, I mean, he just he, he loves competition And that's,
- 2:45:18you know, that's what you saw every time he pulled the uniform
- 2:45:22on. And he's the kind of guy that
- 2:45:24you want to call games of. And it was a thrill to do it
- 2:45:27while he was in a in a Cowboys uniform.
- 2:45:29But yeah, I that I will, I will go to my grave calling that a
- 2:45:34catch and should have been a Cowboys win.
- 2:45:36I want to make an announcement to you because I don't.
- 2:45:38Think you know, but last month we're almost at 100 and 1000
- 2:45:43downloads a month. We're almost there on Spotify
- 2:45:46and Apple. OK, so, and we're, we're popular

- 2:45:57grow personalities wise and you've been with us for a while.
- 2:46:01So I, I think not only are we gracious for you to join us, but
- 2:46:05watching our show grow and now with Jabba and, and, and the
- 2:46:08different unique, you know, ways we, we kind of put this platform

- 2:48:26Mexico. Dallas is nice.
- 2:48:28I I wouldn't. Mind going to?
- 2:48:29Dallas, I was there. You have to let you have to land
- 2:48:31in Corpus and to drive to us, you're about another 2 1/2
- 2:48:35hours. Well, I'm not going there.
- 2:48:37I I'm going. I'm going.
- 2:48:38To stay closer, I'm not going to say we got everything.
- 2:48:41Do they have honey mustard? Yes, she'll probably make it
- 2:48:45handy. Yeah, it's gotta be sweet.
- 2:48:47Speedy likes. It's sweet too, right, Speedy.
- 2:48:48All right, well, hurry up. I'm gonna go pee.
- 2:48:50What do we got in there in freaking Texas when there's
- 2:48:52someone. We got some trivia?
- 2:48:53Yeah. Well, that's BBQ.
- 2:48:54Too, I love my BBQ. I love going and first of all,
- 2:48:58Dallas is known for their barbecue and their their steaks
- 2:49:01and their wings. Those are good.
- 2:49:04I, I was in Dallas, I had a chance to go over there during
- 2:49:08the NHL draft and I got a chance to go.
- 2:49:10Some of the, what we used is we used Yelp to check out some of
- 2:49:14the BBQ places. I went to two of them.
- 2:49:16One of them I and I don't like hot stuff.
- 2:49:19They had this like you have somebody told me you have to try
- 2:49:23our heart, our hot wings. They're so tasty, dude.
- 2:49:26It almost burned my tongue. It took almost took my tongue
- 2:49:29off. That's how hot it was.
- 2:49:31So there's some people I went to College in Buffalo and they
- 2:49:34don't mess around with like that hot sauce.
- 2:49:36Like there's there's some people and I speed.
- 2:49:38I don't know if you I know you like to eat like you're you were
- 2:49:41like the master sampler when we went down to New Orleans.
- 2:49:43You tried everything but speedy. How spicy can you go?
- 2:49:46Could you do like a suicide wing?
- 2:49:48They call them where they it's like so hot that like it burns
- 2:49:51your he likes the suicide sausage.
- 2:49:54I have. I've had it at.
- 2:49:56There was a a. Bar near my school actually
- 2:49:58combined four different of. Their sauces.
- 2:50:00That's probably the spiciest one I've had.
- 2:50:02I don't know where it compares to any levels.
- 2:50:04Of anything Buffalo but I, I have been.
- 2:50:08Able to do that my one of my cousins actually really does
- 2:50:12love growbar. He'll actually add like.
- 2:50:13Extra growbar just to everything.
- 2:50:15He has my rear end. Is burning.
- 2:50:16There's there's. People that like don't even.
- 2:50:18Care what it tastes like it's just got to be super spicy you
- 2:50:21got to get like the back of your head sweating fish from the
- 2:50:25spice not that you're exhausted that's called sex right right
- 2:50:29I've I've had. That with.
- 2:50:30Medium. Spiced wings in Buffalo where
- 2:50:34the back of my head sweats. Yeah, Errol, if the back of your
- 2:50:38head was sweating, you still eating that food?
- 2:50:41I'll, I'll eat whatever it takes to get you guys off my back.
- 2:50:45Because I know one person right there in the corner and the
- 2:50:48bottom corner. Bottom corner when I was in
- 2:50:50Louisiana complaining that all I'm looking to get is fries and
- 2:50:57Nuggets or, you know, whatever I could get.
- 2:51:00Whatever the free. I don't like hot stuff, OK?
- 2:51:03I stay the hell away from the hot stuff.
- 2:51:05I don't want to if you guys don't want.
- 2:51:07You want me to be like Tommy poops over here.
- 2:51:09You keep me away from the hot stuff.
- 2:51:10Well, it's not just the hot stuff.
- 2:51:12Like we were at a nice Italian place and you were like, how's
- 2:51:15your Alfredo? Yeah, I like, it's like a thing
- 2:51:17where it's like fake Italian Alfredo's like fake.
- 2:51:19I'll take the chicken Nuggets. And the gallon of hot sauce and
- 2:51:25the gallon of honey mustard. It's good.
- 2:51:27Alfredo's good. I'm not going to say it's not.
- 2:51:28Fish wears paintings. You're trying to do that.
- 2:51:31It's just like. You're not supposed to do that.
- 2:51:34Jabba takes it up the yes. I see you care.
- 2:51:38So much I really don't. Anyways, ladies and gentlemen,
- 2:51:41we call this Tic Tac. No Tic Tac.
- 2:51:46Morris, right in the. Butt.
- 2:51:49We get the. Prizes.
- 2:51:50Cheap because they're. Stolen.
- 2:51:53No. No, no, no.
- 2:51:56No, no. He tastes himself.
- 2:52:04OK. That's a odd way to start tic
- 2:52:07Tac. Now the rah rah shishkumba.
- 2:52:09That's an even better one. All right.
- 2:52:11Let's start he made my nipples hard with some former.
- 2:52:14Teammate of Jabba. Chamberlain So the question what
- 2:52:17about Skidmark? No Skidmark.
- 2:52:19Was not a teammate of Jabba Chamberlain.
- 2:52:21I got a bubble. Which one of your former?
- 2:52:23Teammates Jabba. Was the All Star game MVP in
- 2:52:262012 when he was playing with a different team. 2012 in 2012.
- 2:52:34Yes, they're going some. They're going.
- 2:52:38So I was. I was.
- 2:52:40I was still with New York. It was someone he.
- 2:52:44Was with in 2000. He was before that he was
- 2:52:48teammate with. Him before that and then he it
- 2:52:50was I was, I was with him. Before he got that, yes.
- 2:52:53So OK with a different. Team when he won the All Star.
- 2:52:57OK, hey, did. New York hit.
- 2:52:59No hit. No, they won, dude.
- 2:53:01They won. They came back.
- 2:53:02They came back and won. I called it, I called it on.
- 2:53:05I'm literally we're doing an interview.
- 2:53:07I have three screens. I'm watching the game, I'm
- 2:53:10tweeting and doing the show right now.
- 2:53:12My brain is on fire right now. Wells tied it up with two outs
- 2:53:15in the ninth and then Judge and I called it.
- 2:53:17I called it, I go, let's let's walk it off right now.
- 2:53:21And Jabba Jabba. Got sick and then.
- 2:53:23Fish told him to go and see how. No, not yet.
- 2:53:29Yeah, Speedy, that 20. 12 is tough.
- 2:53:33So. 2012 All Star game MVP was a teammate at job as before that.
- 2:53:39So it was a Yankee before 2012 on a different team and won the
- 2:53:44All Star game MVP that year. So that's.
- 2:53:49Pretty tough. So somebody that?
- 2:53:51Was good enough that they could do that.
- 2:53:52Was was he still? Hold on, I really need some.
- 2:53:57Intern help on this one. I think he's an.
- 2:53:58Outfielder. He's got to be an outfielder.
- 2:54:01You know what? I.
- 2:54:03No, hold on. So I played with him.
- 2:54:09I played with him. He was.
- 2:54:12I know who it. Is hold on.
- 2:54:15Hold on, hold on hold. On.
- 2:54:16Hold on. Hold on.
- 2:54:17Did he he? Did he?
- 2:54:19I don't. Think he won?
- 2:54:21No, it's Milky, is it? I almost said Milky.
- 2:54:25I almost said Milky. That's the year he won the MVP
- 2:54:29and then got caught and then he got busted, right?
- 2:54:31Yes, yes, that's so. That's if you said someone else.
- 2:54:34I was going to say said that and I was like, oh, that was it.
- 2:54:39That's so. Funny I.
- 2:54:40Just should say junior. Carmenaro just took freaking
- 2:54:43Bueller. To the way back, Bueller's not
- 2:54:45doing well this year. All right, sweetie, we took that
- 2:54:47one. So that who did goodie?
- 2:54:50Junior Carmenaro. Yeah, he's good.
- 2:54:53He should have been. In anyways dog that's called
- 2:54:57sex, he should. Have let me put you.
- 2:55:03Jabba going in the middle. Yeah, we'll go in the middle.
- 2:55:07Oh, all right. Speedy, cool, long.
- 2:55:09Coats in a. 2nd. Beater.
- 2:55:11To the way back, beater needs to foot.
- 2:55:13Go take it. We go.
- 2:55:15We got Jabba right in the middle.
- 2:55:18All right, speedy, next question.
- 2:55:19All right, so Shay, Gilders, Alexander, obviously we know
- 2:55:21what. The big contract he got, which
- 2:55:23is the largest for any of the four major sports and the 5th
- 2:55:27largest ever, three of them are soccer players.
- 2:55:29There's one player that isn't an individual sports athlete.
- 2:55:33So what was your question? So the question is, so it could
- 2:55:36be like boxing, tennis, golf, UFC, etcetera.
- 2:55:38Who is the only athlete who is not a soccer player to make 70
- 2:55:42million per year or more? Is it Canelo?
- 2:55:44It is. There we go.
- 2:55:45I knew. That very good.
- 2:55:47Oh, Tommy. Dissect.
- 2:55:48I was. Gonna I?

- 2:56:11we'll go with that. Here we go, Speedy.
- 2:56:13You better you better step it up.
- 2:56:14We're going to sweep you, bro. All right, well, since since
- 2:56:17Kevin is an old. Man, I have a Suns related
- 2:56:19question. So which former Knicks players?
- 2:56:21Obviously Devin Booker got the big contract when Kevin started
- 2:56:24his broadcasting career with the Suns in 2017.
- 2:56:26Which former Knicks player was tied for the second highest Suns
- 2:56:30player in 2017? So 2017 second highest Suns.
- 2:56:34What? Suns.
- 2:56:35Player in 2017 highest. Paid Suns player in 2017 and
- 2:56:39Kevin started his broadcasting career with that in 2017 out of
- 2:56:432017, he's a. Former Nick.
- 2:56:46Second highest paid. Player on the team in. 2017 on
- 2:56:49the Suns? On the Suns, yes.
- 2:56:51Did he play? Before the Knick at Knicks at
- 2:56:53the. Time.
- 2:56:54No, he was on. The Suns at the time he was
- 2:56:55previously oh. No, was it What's his face?
- 2:56:58What's his face, Bledsoe? No.
- 2:57:02Bledsoe. Bledsoe isn't incorrect, no.
- 2:57:04No, this is a ridiculous guess. There's no way he was making
- 2:57:10enough money unless his contract was that bad.
- 2:57:13Is it Kurt Thomas? Damn it, I know he played for.
- 2:57:17The sons for a while. I don't.
- 2:57:20I'm out on this one because I. Don't know shit.
- 2:57:22About. The Sons.
- 2:57:24I'm trying to think we can. Sweep.
- 2:57:25Them if we get this guys, I'm trying interns, we need you.
- 2:57:28I'm trying to think of the sun goody.
- 2:57:30I know. You're all that.
- 2:57:32Basketball knowledge Goody. It's all about the.
- 2:57:36Orlando Magic What? Position Did he play?
- 2:57:39Speedy Was. He was he.
- 2:57:40On the Knicks. Before he was on the Sons, yes.
- 2:57:42So he was on the 1027. He previously was a Knick.
- 2:57:48Yeah, I couldn't tell you. That's a tough one.
- 2:57:50That's a good question. Yeah, that's I like how you're
- 2:57:54sticking to. One.
- 2:57:56Just one. Aspect speedy I appreciate that
- 2:57:58I think I have a guess I. Don't know if it's the right
- 2:58:00time period. Is Amari Stoudemire.
- 2:58:03It's not going to be him. He.
- 2:58:05Was a son first? Yeah, I thought so, yeah.
- 2:58:09I'm I'm. Trying to go back and.
- 2:58:11When I find out, it's going to make me pissed.
- 2:58:13Pissed off? I don't know.
- 2:58:15Steve Novak? Nope.
- 2:58:18So who hasn't? Got no any Jake He got any
- 2:58:20guess. He got a lot of money when he
- 2:58:21left the Knicks, by the way. No, I was, I was going to say
- 2:58:23Stoudemire too, but I. Knew he was his son before he
- 2:58:26was a Knick. Yeah, I'm drawing a boy all.
- 2:58:29Right. We.
- 2:58:29Give up speedy all. Right, it's Tyson Chandler.
- 2:58:33Oh. I met.
- 2:58:37Him at a. Club.
- 2:58:38That dude is so damn tall and long, holy cow.
- 2:58:43Didn't he have like an? Insurance policy and he got
- 2:58:45hurt. Speedy, I'm assuming you're
- 2:58:47going for the. Block yes I.
- 2:58:49Am it's so annoying because. I know he was on Dallas.
- 2:58:51Then he went to New York. Then he went.
- 2:58:53All right, next question. All right, let's go back to the
- 2:58:55All Star. Game who has the most all?
- 2:58:58Star game appearances in MLB history with 25. 25 you're going
- 2:59:04to do that. Speedy, are you dumb 2525 Yes,
- 2:59:09you played 20. Five years, it's got to be like.
- 2:59:12Somebody. In the 30s, it's easy.
- 2:59:13Who is? It think of, think about it
- 2:59:17people they heard. Nolan Ryan.
- 2:59:20No, Hank. Aaron, he played.
- 2:59:22So he's like, it's Hank Aaron, stupid.
- 2:59:25I was right. Look at that.
- 2:59:26He played for. 20. Five years, Hank Aaron.
- 2:59:28Yes, longer than that. Play for 29.
- 2:59:31Yeah, he stop it. Really.
- 2:59:33Yeah. Wow, I didn't know.
- 2:59:35He played that long. That was my guess.
- 2:59:37Hank Aaron. Is that the longest ever?
- 2:59:39I mean, I guess I think he had. I think he had, if I remember
- 2:59:43right, I think he had at least 20 consecutive, I think.
- 2:59:49All right, John, but where we going?
- 2:59:50I answered. It, by the way, not him.
- 2:59:53Oh, sorry Errol. Sorry.
- 2:59:55Let's get Errol. I got a new graphic for Errol.
- 2:59:58What was? Who was it?
- 2:59:59Was it Jabba and me? I heard you first all.
- 3:00:02Right. Whatever, I don't care.
- 3:00:04Somebody doesn't want to give your pictures there.
- 3:00:06Somebody doesn't want to. Where do you want to go?
- 3:00:07Somebody put it wherever you want.
- 3:00:10I don't give a crap. I just want put up.
- 3:00:12Your ass. Oh boy, that's what she said.
- 3:00:13All right, well, all right. Let's move it on.
- 3:00:16All right, Speedy, All right, we'll.
- 3:00:17Go to the other end of the. Thunder contracts Jalen Williams
- 3:00:20got a five year, $287,000,000 extension.
- 3:00:23He was the number 12 overall pick in the in the NBA draft who
- 3:00:26is the only other #12 overall pick to get a $200 million deal
- 3:00:31#12 overall. Pick.
- 3:00:33Can you give us a year in that? It's an active player.
- 3:00:37OK, Active. Player.
- 3:00:38I know who it is active. Player 200 million #12 but still
- 3:00:42playing, still playing. Errol, you get this, right?
- 3:00:44We win. I'm going to guess.
- 3:00:46Yep. The spider?
- 3:00:47Nope, he was 13. That's I.
- 3:00:51Can't remember what, I think he was a.
- 3:00:53Middle to later on pick, but I'm gonna wait.
- 3:00:55This is it, Giannis. Nope.
- 3:00:57No, he was later. He was the 16th.
- 3:01:00Pick. I thought it was close but. 200
- 3:01:02million. In the same.
- 3:01:05Pick 12 number. 12 overall pick. Is this going to be like when we
- 3:01:13we're going to be? Like, oh, or you're going to be
- 3:01:14like, screw you for picking this.
- 3:01:16No, it's a it's NBA superstar player and.
- 3:01:18He's a current player, you said right, Star.
- 3:01:21Player I think I I think I know, but the current star player in
- 3:01:23the. NBA, I mean, you said.
- 3:01:26Star, player, star. Player a number. 12 pick that's
- 3:01:29got 200 million for who or who's he playing he's not talent he's
- 3:01:32not telling us well you can't tell us that I.
- 3:01:37Have a couple in. My.
- 3:01:38Mind, I don't think it's the. 1 So I thought he went later. 12th
- 3:01:46I don't I don't know if this guy.
- 3:01:48Went that late. I think he got drafted a little
- 3:01:50higher. I'm going to just go with it
- 3:01:51because it's in the top of my head.
- 3:01:52I'm going to say Scotty Barnes. Nope, he was.
- 3:01:55I think he got like he was earlier.
- 3:01:57I think he was the. Top.
- 3:01:58He was earlier Scotty. Barnes is like top five, yeah.
- 3:01:59I think he was 5 or 6 and. That's yeah, they gave him money
- 3:02:03and now he sucks again. So what year?
- 3:02:05Was his drop all? Right.
- 3:02:08No, I don't know if. We can give him clues we're
- 3:02:10trailing. We're trailing alright.
- 3:02:13He's trailing by a lot. He has to block us.
- 3:02:17Twice. That's a tough. 1 #12 I didn't
- 3:02:23tell you who it. First, guys, just throw some.
- 3:02:24Games out. There, so we can move on to the.
- 3:02:26Next one, anybody? I am nothing.
- 3:02:30There's a guy. With huge hands.
- 3:02:32That I almost. Said instead, but I think he
- 3:02:34went later. No.
- 3:02:39John Moran was the number two overall pick.
- 3:02:42You talking about kawhi fish? It's.
- 3:02:45The single pick Kawhi, so I'm. Bartlin Kawhi went.
- 3:02:48Later he went later. That was, yeah.
- 3:02:50That's why I think he went later just for some reason.
- 3:02:52Kawhi was 16. Yeah.
- 3:02:56And it was what? What draft?
- 3:02:57Against Speedy, he's. He's just saying that he's
- 3:02:59active now. I don't think he's active now.
- 3:03:02So it's. He's got, it's got to be.
- 3:03:04Obviously in the last like 1010 plus years, Devin Booker good.
- 3:03:11Guess. Also was 13.
- 3:03:13Wow, I. Was going to say.
- 3:03:14Devin too. But I felt like we've had 213.
- 3:03:16Picks. Gosh, I was.
- 3:03:16Going to say I was going to say. Devin.
- 3:03:18Too not lucky. For us in this one, I.
- 3:03:21Did the all. Hey, hey.
- 3:03:22The funny part is Devin Booker's AV at 72 is valued more than the
- 3:03:27whole Martin's. Yeah, that is team right now.
- 3:03:30That sounds accurate. All right, anyone with last
- 3:03:33chances? I got I got.
- 3:03:34I got nothing. I got nothing.
- 3:03:36All right, Speedy, tell us. Hold on.
- 3:03:37Hold on. Let me.
- 3:03:39Oh, Errol, you haven't given anything.
- 3:03:40No, he already made a guess. I want to make.
- 3:03:42I'm just going to make a guess. Just to sake a Nah.
- 3:03:47What we don't do it Tyrese. Halliburt hell shut up.
- 3:03:52God. Damn, that's a.
- 3:03:53Good one, Speedy. All right, Speedy.

- 3:04:02I'll go bottom right. We'll play for the win.
- 3:04:04Look at that. I don't know why you would do
- 3:04:07that instead of this. But that's.
- 3:04:09OK, here we go. Moving.
- 3:04:12Back Speedy, Speedy. This is the.
- 3:04:16This is. The best one you've given in a
- 3:04:17while. I will.
- 3:04:18I will say that. All right.
- 3:04:20Whoever gets this next one wins. Let's.
- 3:04:21Do. It all right.
- 3:04:22Let's do it. We'll finish it off with some
- 3:04:24active baseball. Players.
- 3:04:25Which two players are tied for the most active All Star Game
- 3:04:29appearances with 11 in their career?
- 3:04:32Mike Trout? That's one.
- 3:04:33Yep. Goody got one Freddy's at 9:00.
- 3:04:38Clayton. Kershaw and you got.
- 3:04:42The second Yep, Yep, right. Away, OH.

- 3:05:30Goodies Bag of balls. That's how you become great man.
- 3:05:34Hang your balls. Out there, love it.
- 3:05:38Let's step right. All that Home Run Derby's up
- 3:05:41coming up, Ronald Lacuna's in it.
- 3:05:44Could he be the first Atlanta Braves player?
- 3:05:48To win the Home Run Derby. At home we also have hometown
- 3:05:52hero Byron Buxton. He's playing fan favorite
- 3:05:56because he is from from Georgia, from Georgia Raw Power with
- 3:06:02O'Neill Cruz. We got a little bit of youth
- 3:06:05with Junior K Monaro and Jazz Chisholm bringing the swagger.
- 3:06:09Who's your guys's picks for this year's Home Run Derby?
- 3:06:11OK goody, let me interrupt you. Who was the last?
- 3:06:13Person to win at their home stadium.
- 3:06:17Todd Frazier. You're an.
- 3:06:19Asshole. Found me out.
- 3:06:23That's easy one bro, I played. He was just, he was just on too,
- 3:06:27and I was. Like that would be a great one.
- 3:06:29I mean, I think Kyle Raleigh. Has a good chance I.
- 3:06:32Think rookers. In it busy old.
- 3:06:38Age today he's one I like because.
- 3:06:39I think he's got the good stand. So I'll just go through them.
- 3:06:43We have a mention. Abu Lacuna.
- 3:06:45We got cow. OK, so Rondo Cunha is making his
- 3:06:48third appearance. Cal Rally is making his first
- 3:06:51appearance with 36 homers before the break.
- 3:06:54He would be the first or the second Mariner to win after
- 3:06:57fishes Griffey. James Wood.
- 3:07:00He's 6 foot 7, known for his 116 plus mile per hour exit
- 3:07:04velocities. Byron Buxton, He's healthy in
- 3:07:072025 with 20 homers. Georgia native.
- 3:07:10I got O'Neill Cruz. O'Neill Cruz.
- 3:07:13Set this. Sets the stat cast record with
- 3:07:15122.9 mile per hour home run the hardest ever hit and he broke
- 3:07:20his own record he's. 6/7. Got Junior Caminaro.
- 3:07:25With 22. Homers in 87 games.
- 3:07:28He's been stated as he wants a show.
- 3:07:32We have Brent Rooker coming off 39 homers in 2024 and on pace
- 3:07:35for a third straight 30 Homer season.
- 3:07:38That's his name, All Star Reserve.
- 3:07:41And then finally, we have Jazz. Chisholm.
- 3:07:45He's the first game, Gary. Sanchez in 2000 and. 17 and we
- 3:07:50know what he can do with the flair and the swagger.
- 3:07:52Breaking news, I farted. Who you taking?
- 3:07:56I. Got one I let's.
- 3:07:57I got let's let's do this. Too.
- 3:08:00Let's let's make a bet on this. Show.
- 3:08:04We have to pick. Our winners I want.
- 3:08:06Her melons. And write these down speedy.
- 3:08:09Write these down. Who?
- 3:08:12Who are you? Who are you picking do?
- 3:08:14You want to jerk me off? All right, Goody.
- 3:08:16This this is your segment. Who are you picking as the
- 3:08:19winner? And then we'll go what's the
- 3:08:22dimensions in? Tourist Park.
- 3:08:26And. What's the the setup?
- 3:08:27Is it still? The time, it's still the same.
- 3:08:30It's still. The same as it.
- 3:08:32Is it's not the old one, it's it's the the new one.
- 3:08:35I'm going to go with fish. Where's?
- 3:08:37Panties. You know what?
- 3:08:39All. Right, so.
- 3:08:40Truest Park. Is 335 to left field, 385 to to
- 3:08:45left center, 400 to center, 375 to right center and 3:25 to
- 3:08:49right. It's pull friendly.
- 3:08:53So it's. Pretty I'm going to go.
- 3:08:56I'm. Going to go O'Neill Cruz I.
- 3:08:59Wanted to go Kunya. Just because of the hometown
- 3:09:01here, but Jabba liked my shrimp cocktail.
- 3:09:03I go on your cruise. I got mine.
- 3:09:09Who you going? Who?
- 3:09:10You going Errol? I'm going with Wood, baby.
- 3:09:13I'm going with the young one. I think he's special.
- 3:09:16I think he's got a lot of power. I think he's going to put on a
- 3:09:19show at the Home Run Derby, I think.
- 3:09:21I think he's going to be fun to watch.
- 3:09:23I remember when Aaron Judge made his first appearance there, the
- 3:09:25six foot 7 Boemith. I think this kid is going to be
- 3:09:28special. I think he's going to put on a
- 3:09:30raking. So I'm going Mr. Wood.
- 3:09:32All right, I'll go. I was considering that as well.
- 3:09:34I'll, I'll go with Rooker. I think his swing is definitely
- 3:09:37good for that type of event. Like you're saying, goody strong
- 3:09:39exit velocity. He's done it in big parks in the
- 3:09:41past, but in Oakland and big in that division.
- 3:09:44So now he's playing in a smaller one too.
- 3:09:45But like very consistently. I think he's somebody to the DH
- 3:09:48that could have the stand on the for it so found me out.
- 3:09:52I'm I'm going. I'm going.
- 3:09:54Byron Buxton. Calm down here.
- 3:09:57I'm going Buxton. I.
- 3:10:00Think he'll put on a show? No.
- 3:10:01Doubt he'll definitely. Put on a show.
- 3:10:03I just thought like, my thing is he's always hurt.
- 3:10:05So like with him and Acuna being hurt, Jazz Chisholm coming off
- 3:10:09his shoulder injury. I I love Rally because his dad's
- 3:10:13going to throw in his. And his brother's going to
- 3:10:15catch, like, I think his dad's going to get a tight monkey.
- 3:10:18Well, we've seen that Robbie Cano had.
- 3:10:20His dad and he fucking, he did it.
- 3:10:22Yeah, yeah, I. Love Lisa.
- 3:10:25Ann. Lisa Ann's not.
- 3:10:27Hidden. Sorry, Nathan.
- 3:10:29Sorry, I would like to see Lisa Ann.
- 3:10:30I don't know you. I liked.
- 3:10:33Her to. I like her to.
- 3:10:34Grab my bat. After.
- 3:10:38After. I hope you're listening to this
- 3:10:39pass. Liquor.
- 3:10:43So who so are you? Write these down.
- 3:10:46We got O'Neill. Cruz we got.
- 3:10:48Rooker, we've got Buxton and we got James Wood.
- 3:10:53This would be good. Then we got Buxton.
- 3:10:55I said. Buxton.
- 3:10:56Oh, you did. Next one.
- 3:11:01All right, the next, the next one.
- 3:11:03The. Next one was probably the most
- 3:11:06recent. Well, actually, probably today
- 3:11:08is the most recent, but the next the following after this.
- 3:11:11But did anybody see what happened with Grok yesterday?
- 3:11:14No, and it's not surprising you're back on the Oh, I saw.
- 3:11:20It goody. I was paying attention.
- 3:11:23Goody, what did you ask? I knew you were.
- 3:11:25Our our token. Jew.
- 3:11:27Down in the bottom left corner. What?
- 3:11:32What happened? What happened?
- 3:11:33We got to have one. Anti-Semitic Grok Anti.
- 3:11:36Semitic Grok. Grok.
- 3:11:38Shocked. The users by generating
- 3:11:39anti-Semitic content referring to Hitler as someone who could
- 3:11:43handle anti white hate. It also generated violent sexual
- 3:11:47content targeting targeting a real ex user, prompting
- 3:11:51widespread public outrage and legal threats.
- 3:11:56Our ex AI rushed to delete the outputs and admitted the system
- 3:12:00became too permissive due to recent prompt updates.
- 3:12:05It was calling Grok. The AI was calling itself Mecca
- 3:12:08Hitler as it. As people were asking questions.
- 3:12:13It was calling itself Mecca Hitler.
- 3:12:17There was a South Park. Where it was like a Mecca.
- 3:12:19Barbra Streisand that was trying to destroy the entire town like
- 3:12:22it was Godzilla? Yes, let's call that.
- 3:12:24But they're also Thai travellers.
- 3:12:26So they know. Everything like they they've no,
- 3:12:29no time. The time travellers are.
- 3:12:31The Simpsons Groaning. Matt groaning.
- 3:12:35Or is that I think? That Matt dude is right about a
- 3:12:37lot of stuff. He's a. 100% right 100.
- 3:12:40Percent right. So can we trust?
- 3:12:44Elon Musk to manage an AI. System and Should AI tools be
- 3:12:48allowed to interact with real people on public platforms?
- 3:12:51They are free speech. Versus AI.
- 3:12:54Safety Grok proven has proven we can't handle both.
- 3:13:00What do you got? Hate speech isn't.
- 3:13:03Exactly free speech. So it's it's something that you
- 3:13:06have to there's, there's not enough like you can only say so
- 3:13:10much. So like I.
- 3:13:12This is something. I've had to deal with as a
- 3:13:13history teacher, social studies teachers.
- 3:13:16You tell kids that you have freedom of speech doesn't mean
- 3:13:19that people aren't also free to criticize your speech because
- 3:13:23what you're if they have just as much freedom to do so.
- 3:13:26So if you say something, you're going to get it back.
- 3:13:28You can only give as good as you take is another way to say it.
- 3:13:31That's freedom of speech. A lot of people don't realize
- 3:13:34they're supposed to be back and forth.
- 3:13:35And it's not like I said this. You can't say anything to me.
- 3:13:38No, in fact, I can and I should if I'm exercising free speech at
- 3:13:43the same time. You as a teacher though, too.
- 3:13:44And you and you see guys like Charlie Kirk, You see guys like
- 3:13:48this and not they're doing whatever they're doing, right,
- 3:13:52Clay Travis, We're seeing that in in all of what they do.
- 3:13:56And we're we're a different conglomerate, right?
- 3:13:59And we're not those guys. And.
- 3:14:03Value to what you say is 1. Thing but.
- 3:14:07Does it I I? I just don't understand.
- 3:14:11It's like just based. On.
- 3:14:13What it is, it's like what we do on this show, you know, Errol,
- 3:14:16Errol and Speedy. We're always looking at all the
- 3:14:18different angles that people are saying about the story.
- 3:14:21We're not just going off of one thing We read like I read the
- 3:14:24athletics article, Yahoo's article, I.
- 3:14:27You know, the different takes from different pundits.
- 3:14:29You know, it would be political. It's for us.
- 3:14:32It's you know, what is ESPN a Bleacher Report out to say?
- 3:14:34It's it's about it's the same thing in social studies.
- 3:14:37Get a lot of sources. Yeah, 100% sift through what you
- 3:14:41see. You'll see some people have some
- 3:14:42overlapping things. If there's a lot of people
- 3:14:45having the similar ideas, that one probably has more credence
- 3:14:48than the but also so fish too. You got to understand too, we're
- 3:14:52all human beings. So just because what we hear
- 3:14:55doesn't necessarily mean what we believe in, right.
- 3:14:57Well, I think people are lazy in general.
- 3:14:59Like people want to hear the first thing or they hear from
- 3:15:02someone who's entertaining and they just go with that.
- 3:15:04They don't do the research and they don't they don't go into
- 3:15:07it. I agree.
- 3:15:08I agree. I mean, speedy we how many
- 3:15:10times? I mean, I know as a fantasy
- 3:15:11baseball guy, speedy. I do more research than the guys
- 3:15:15in my league and I always end up in the playoffs because I know
- 3:15:18the guys that are going to do well based on the stuff that we
- 3:15:21talk about every day. I mean, speedy, don't you feel
- 3:15:23like it gives you an advantage understanding the game even
- 3:15:26though you didn't play? That's going to be for a lot of
- 3:15:29these different. Contexts because there might be
- 3:15:31different walks of life with all these athletes and we're seeing
- 3:15:33it now kind of fuse even with like athletes also being more
- 3:15:37into to comics and movie and like superhero movies and stuff
- 3:15:41like that. We've interviewed a lot of those
- 3:15:42guys, obviously, but you guys, you guys are so different.
- 3:15:46Speedy and fish too is because like you hadn't played the game,
- 3:15:50so you just look at it such in a different realm where like
- 3:15:53sometimes we play into the heart of the game and watch the game
- 3:15:57where you guys are like no, I'm just I'm looking at what it is
- 3:16:01and some you guys are way smarter than us because we easy
- 3:16:06goody. Like.
- 3:16:08Goody, you did tell me. I get.
- 3:16:09It. I get it, Yeah, I mean.
- 3:16:13Does it matter? My ACT.
- 3:16:14Score was a 30. 2. Out of 36, but that doesn't mean
- 3:16:19that. Doesn't mean I'm smart that.
- 3:16:20Doesn't that doesn't dictate how smart you are because your.
- 3:16:23SAT score's bad or ACT score's bad.
- 3:16:25Let me just tell you that writing section, that's all I
- 3:16:26could brag about. I had a good writing section
- 3:16:30too, is the only thing. I could actually do everything
- 3:16:32else was pretty, but yeah, too bad nobody counts the writing
- 3:16:35section on. That test and they yeah, well
- 3:16:37guess what, It doesn't exist anymore and you get 800 points
- 3:16:40for spelling and the ACT didn't help me.
- 3:16:44At all. My boys didn't really need it,
- 3:16:45but I'll. Say.
- 3:16:46For me, like when I, when I like talk about those tests and the
- 3:16:50kids like not don't understand it, it's really difficult to
- 3:16:52teach social studies today because of what you're seeing.
- 3:16:55It's so easy to just ask AI and we're very easy to trust what AI
- 3:16:59says. I mean, all night I've been just
- 3:17:01typing in the things you guys have said and looking up the
- 3:17:03baseball stats like we just did for the dimension of Truest
- 3:17:06Field. Well, what if the AI on Google
- 3:17:09was going to tell me Truest Field is anti-Semitic?
- 3:17:12And actually you should, you know, support that like that.
- 3:17:15That's basically what Twitter was doing last night.
- 3:17:18Oh, here's an anti-Semitic answer because I have a
- 3:17:21political missive as whoever's in charge of this AI.
- 3:17:24And that's the scary thing that's going on because the
- 3:17:28laziness of not doing the research when it runs into an AI
- 3:17:32that's probably going to be better than this one because
- 3:17:34it's so early in the AI game, People aren't going to know
- 3:17:37they're getting fed hate stuff or they're getting bed fed bad,
- 3:17:42you know, statistics or bad dimensions of fields and things
- 3:17:45like that. It could affect gambling.
- 3:17:46If I'm in if I'm in a sports book, guys, Errol, what's
- 3:17:49stopping a sports book from creating their own AI and
- 3:17:53telling people to make bad picks?
- 3:17:56I. Think the sports books are
- 3:17:58already picked? I think Las Vegas already knows
- 3:18:02what's going to happen because I think sports is absolutely a
- 3:18:06business now. It's not about what player, it's
- 3:18:10all about what player does what in the game and how many points
- 3:18:14they score in an inning. Or well then you should watch
- 3:18:17WWE because it's all scripted, right?
- 3:18:19So that's entertainment like it's pre planned.
- 3:18:23You know, it's great stories, just like the stories we're
- 3:18:26watching. If you think that it's scripted,
- 3:18:28let's go talk to Tom Brady. I'm sure he knows all about it,
- 3:18:30so he probably does. What do you got next, Goody?
- 3:18:33I'll pop back out for this one. No, you're gonna stay in the
- 3:18:35same for this. You got more rocks.
- 3:18:38This is your favorite? Sport and I'm bringing it up.
- 3:18:40OK, all right, I'm here. All right, well 2K sports just
- 3:18:47came out with. Cover.
- 3:18:48Athlete. Yeah, you like this.
- 3:18:51Our girl Angel Reese is the 2K basketball women's sports cover
- 3:18:56athlete. My, my deal is if Caitlin Clark
- 3:19:00is driving the Lee's explosion in popularity, how is she not
- 3:19:05the 2K cover athlete? I give you the answer to that,
- 3:19:09OK. Should 2K reward league
- 3:19:12performance or? Cultural momentum.
- 3:19:15Is it about growing the game? Because then I guess.
- 3:19:20Clark has to. Be the pick, right?
- 3:19:21No, I think the whole. Point of what they did was
- 3:19:25pretty simple. Caitlin Clark doesn't need a
- 3:19:28they don't she don't need to be on a video game.
- 3:19:30She's on a shoe. She's on the shoe deals.
- 3:19:33She's the reason why the league is making all that money.
- 3:19:35She don't need and I'm sure Caitlin Clark don't give a crap
- 3:19:38that she's on a damn video game. I, I think the fact is, is Angel
- 3:19:42Reese is her predecessor and they know that she's, you know,
- 3:19:46Caitlin Clark's predecessor. It's just like Magic Johnson and
- 3:19:49Larry Bird when they came into the league, Magic Johnson was
- 3:19:52the, the superstar and then Larry Bird came and, and he
- 3:19:55became the guy. And I think the whole point is,
- 3:19:58is you need a good guy, you need a bad guy.
- 3:20:00Caitlin Clark, you can consider a lot of the but they weren't.
- 3:20:03But no Errol you, you got to like Larry Bird and Magic
- 3:20:07Johnson were selling out the arena.
- 3:20:08Weren't the evil and the villains like they?
- 3:20:10Weren't they? Weren't that well, I, I think
- 3:20:13when Larry Bird came into the league, when Larry Bird came
- 3:20:16into the league, he was considered and, and this is the
- 3:20:19truth. Remember when Larry Bird played
- 3:20:22Magic Johnson in the championship?
- 3:20:23What happened? Who won speedy?
- 3:20:27You know who won in what, when they won when.
- 3:20:30They played in the Championship. Magic won what Magic Johnson
- 3:20:33won. We all know Magic, all right.
- 3:20:35So when Magic Johnson, it's Michigan State and Indiana
- 3:20:38State, we get it. When Magic Johnson, when Magic
- 3:20:41Johnson went into the league, he broke the league on fire.
- 3:20:44When when Larry Bird came into the league, Larry Bird's goal
- 3:20:47goal was to punish Magic and beat him and and beat him in a
- 3:20:51championship. But at the same time, Errol, you
- 3:20:53got to understand too. Like you, you look at everybody
- 3:20:56in like Isaiah Thomas, everybody like who was the biggest shit
- 3:20:59talker ever and Larry Bird did it different.
- 3:21:02Because he goes. I'm going to tell you what I'm
- 3:21:04going to do, when I'm going to do it, and I'm going to do it.
- 3:21:07He wasn't the most athletic. He.
- 3:21:09Didn't jump the highest, but he was going to bust your ass
- 3:21:12anytime, any day, any of the week, whenever he wanted.
- 3:21:15I don't think Caitlin Clark being on a video game means
- 3:21:18anything more than what they. I agree with you on that.
- 3:21:21So the. Fact is.
- 3:21:23Is Caitlin Clark is the but why do you why do you think Reese
- 3:21:26did her shoe after she figured out like, well, Caitlin, I'm
- 3:21:31going to give you the reason for that.
- 3:21:33Who signed her? Reebok, right?
- 3:21:35Who? Who runs Reebok right now?
- 3:21:38Shaquille O'Neal and Allen Iverson, that's who runs Reebok.
- 3:21:41So what do you think had to say on who's going to be on a video
- 3:21:45game? Shaq does.
- 3:21:47Shaq is a he's a superstar. He's the name.
- 3:21:50And that's what Shaq. Shaq probably it was all about
- 3:21:53money. I'm sure something was, you
- 3:21:55know, obviously invested into that.
- 3:21:57It helps the Reebok deal. It it, it, it to me, it's all
- 3:22:00about money. Caitlin Clark doesn't need to be
- 3:22:03there. Caitlin Clark doesn't need to be
- 3:22:04there. I think the fact is, is that the
- 3:22:07WNBA needs another villain or our predecessor to Caitlin
- 3:22:12Clark, and these two are like tied to the hip.
- 3:22:15I think it's good for women's basketball.
- 3:22:16That's the only reason why they did 100%.
- 3:22:18I think it's great and we look at it in sports and we can all
- 3:22:21look at this. There's always the predecessor,
- 3:22:26there's. Always the villain.
- 3:22:27Like that's the way the game works in every way.
- 3:22:31It's like when Mike Trout was like, did he want to be the face
- 3:22:35and then somebody else? Came.
- 3:22:36In basketball, and we've talked about it, is he supposed to be
- 3:22:40that? He didn't want to be that
- 3:22:42exactly what he said, right? So what does?
- 3:22:46It come down to it's just you. Got to have that back and forth.
- 3:22:49And do they accept that to be able to want to be that?
- 3:22:54And I think. What the WNBA doing, I think
- 3:22:57they're doing it better than anybody because of the back and
- 3:23:00forth. Well, that and Caitlin Clark is
- 3:23:02just the world. No, I'm saying that I think
- 3:23:06they're doing a great job. You would ask me right now, when
- 3:23:09you look at professional sports, who really stands out for like
- 3:23:12the face like LeBron James, the LJA and all that other stuff.
- 3:23:16And they have superstars, but LeBron James runs the league and
- 3:23:19you look at all the people that are faces like Aaron Judge or
- 3:23:21Ohtani or are the faces of their league.
- 3:23:24And then obviously you look at hockey, obviously McDavid and
- 3:23:29and over the years it was Sidney Crosby and Ovechkin.
- 3:23:31If you go through each league, there's got to be something that
- 3:23:35crosses. I think Caitlin Clark sits here
- 3:23:38today as the biggest superstar right now.
- 3:23:41That's why she was voted athlete of the year.
- 3:23:44I think she's the biggest superstar in sports and I think,
- 3:23:47and she's the captain too. Like you look at the numbers and
- 3:23:51what it is she got these votes in the total.
- 3:23:57Number of votes. In the entire time didn't even
- 3:24:00get the total number of votes that she got as number one, but
- 3:24:04the Jabba the players voted her the 9th best guard in the
- 3:24:09voting. Yeah cuz they don't.
- 3:24:10She was the top world again. I was.
- 3:24:12I was. Voted the most overrated.
- 3:24:14Player, right? Halliburton was voted the most
- 3:24:17overrated player before this playoffs as well.
- 3:24:19You know what I will tell you one thing?
- 3:24:22What Pedro? Martinez.
- 3:24:23Said And I know Goody knows this, and Pedro says they don't
- 3:24:27Boo. Nobodies.
- 3:24:28If you are nobody, they ain't talking about you.
- 3:24:31It's true. It's a pretty good point.
- 3:24:33Is all say a bit. About Angel Reese's, I think
- 3:24:36she's kind of taken to the the regular WNBA fans that were
- 3:24:41already there that were a fan of the product already, while as
- 3:24:45Caitlin Clark has brought in a whole new group of fans that
- 3:24:48never watched the WNBA before. She's from the Midwest and she,
- 3:24:52she relies on her, her. Laurels and what it.
- 3:24:55Is, oh, I'm not saying she's not, I'm just saying that you're
- 3:24:57seeing the clash between new fans and old fans that but
- 3:25:01that's what that's my point. Like she's the.
- 3:25:02Star. She should be the cover athlete.
- 3:25:05Not that she cares. If she cares or doesn't care, it
- 3:25:07doesn't matter. It's the best player she's
- 3:25:09selling out of. You know she's bringing new
- 3:25:11fans. I don't even know when is that
- 3:25:13going to sell more if her she's on.
- 3:25:15She's on a video game. No, I, I possibly I believe her.
- 3:25:20Impact. Nobody.
- 3:25:22'S gonna do if they like, they know.
- 3:25:24Caitlin Clark's on the game. I don't think that makes a
- 3:25:26difference, Errol. Just because you were playing
- 3:25:27Atari when you're a kid, you don't realize these freaks,
- 3:25:31these guys, they have, they're playing video games at age 1.
- 3:25:34Atari, they have the times. But buddy, I'm there.
- 3:25:38I'm messing with you. Yeah, Cover being a cover at the
- 3:25:41Neo. Geo It's kind of a big I.

- 3:28:15Yeah. That's.
- 3:28:16That's pretty much where. I'm at There's about to be a
- 3:28:18whole lot of mess. Being talked.
- 3:28:22All right, ladies and gentlemen, we call this.
- 3:28:25Analytics ladies and. Gentlemen, Analytics, I want
- 3:28:31everybody together to go. Ahead and say penis.
- 3:28:34Penis. Penis.
- 3:28:35Vagina. Vagina.
- 3:28:36Vagina. Welcome.
- 3:28:41Back everybody to Analytics, a quality educational experience.
- 3:28:47If you're new to the program, we do this almost every week.
- 3:28:51It is a contest between Errol and Speedy to guess a mystery
- 3:28:55term. They both have 3 clues to guess
- 3:28:58it. Whoever guesses it in the fewest
- 3:29:00amount of clues is the winner. The tiebreaker is they have to
- 3:29:03use it correctly in a sentence and that gives them the winning
- 3:29:08tiebreaker if it comes down to that.
- 3:29:11The problem is we're using different types of terms for the
- 3:29:14two of them. Errol does not know these
- 3:29:17newfangled sports analytics. The sports analytics just don't
- 3:29:21work out for Errol. He doesn't like it.
- 3:29:23He's an eye test man. He is a traditionalist when it
- 3:29:26comes to the statistical analysis, whereas Speedy knows
- 3:29:30all these advanced stats. He will ask him a sports
- 3:29:32analytical question. On the other hand, I can't ask
- 3:29:35Speedy those stats questions. So Speedy's going to get Errol
- 3:29:39what we usually call on this show, gross sexual crap.
- 3:29:43Yes, it's going to. Be a sexual.
- 3:29:44Innuendo that Speedy does not really know much about because
- 3:29:47he's such an innocent little flower.
- 3:29:48That one. You have nothing on the
- 3:29:49soundboard. Tonight, titties Tonight.

- 3:34:27Let's move on. I told you.
- 3:34:30I told you it wouldn't give it to him.
- 3:34:31He just told you what it was. Move on.
- 3:34:38Next one. I get Dumber.
- 3:34:40Every time we do this, I told you you're supposed to.
- 3:34:44Do this segments. Supposed to be a quality
- 3:34:46educational experience. Hey, it's educational.
- 3:34:49We're all learning. We.
- 3:34:50Are definitely learning with Errol's term tonight.
- 3:34:53Errol, give us a clue. I think I know what it is all
- 3:34:55right. I don't.
- 3:34:56Know if I want to know? OK, we're not learning.
- 3:35:00Hey, shut up. We're learning.
- 3:35:01A woman has this. And a man has that a woman has.
- 3:35:07This a woman. Has a vagina and a man.
- 3:35:10Has that. OK, woman has a vagina, a man
- 3:35:12has a penis. OK.
- 3:35:14So the man, so steak. Maybe it's like a a jolting,
- 3:35:18stabbing action. Oh Lord.
- 3:35:22OK. Maybe, let's say.
- 3:35:26From a how to downward position, you're close.
- 3:35:32Man. Close.
- 3:35:34But you're wrong. You're close.
- 3:35:37You got, you got the, you got the, the penis in the vagina,
- 3:35:41but you got to put it together, OK?
- 3:35:45Yeah, I this has. To be the.
- 3:35:48Dumbest one we've ever done. Yes, this isn't the.
- 3:35:52Grossest one it's the. Dumbest one, our methods
- 3:35:56returned, you got to do something with this.
- 3:35:59So, all right, Errol. And I'm pretty sure.
- 3:36:03You have all the letters he does so.
- 3:36:08Pitching. Plate appearance, right?
- 3:36:15Yeah. Pitches plate.
- 3:36:17Appearance. Per.
- 3:36:17Plate appearance you got it pitches per so it really should
- 3:36:20be. PPP A technically pitches per.
- 3:36:24Plate. Appearance Pitches per plate Per
- 3:36:28plate. Appearance.
- 3:36:30OK. So guess what, Errol?
- 3:36:35This. Means you need to tell.
- 3:36:37Us how to use this in a sentence.
- 3:36:40So this is what you're going to do.
- 3:36:41You're going to pick someone on the Yankees and tell us about
- 3:36:46his PPA, not his PP. Unless you want to, it's got to
- 3:36:54be a pitcher. Don't.
- 3:36:55Don't. It's got.
- 3:36:55To be a pitcher. Yeah.
- 3:36:56Jabba, we don't need to hear anymore.
- 3:36:58You're in. Jorge Pasanos.
- 3:36:59Pitches her plate appearance do. Pitchers go to the plate.
- 3:37:05Pitchers go to the plate. Do they not in the, not in the?
- 3:37:09American League or. National League anymore, so it's
- 3:37:11not a pitcher all. Right, Aaron Judge is amongst.
- 3:37:20The leagues best pitchers plate appearances.
- 3:37:28Holy cow, you are. Pitches per plate appearance.
- 3:37:30Plate appearance, that's what. I said that's not wrong.
- 3:37:34He sees a lot of pitches, right? He works deeper in the counts.
- 3:37:37That's basically what we're saying with this stat, right?
- 3:37:40Speedy, yes, You know, Price is not.
- 3:37:42It's retarded how you guys can't get what Quinn steak is.
- 3:37:47Well. Speedy, you're going to.
- 3:37:49Have to ace it. Luckily for you, Errol can never
- 3:37:51give us a perfect sentence. So if you can give us a perfect
- 3:37:54sentence and get it right, you win tonight.
- 3:37:57Well, this hits the right. So now I can't use him in the
- 3:37:59sentence. You, I mean Nathan.
- 3:38:01You can use however. I only use him when he doesn't
- 3:38:03show off I'll. Be fair to Nathan.
- 3:38:06OK, Fair. Here it is, Speedy.
- 3:38:08Here's your. Clue a man.
- 3:38:11Uses. This piece to do something to a
- 3:38:21woman, I don't know if that's going to help.
- 3:38:27Honestly not. Downward I see.
- 3:38:30Quinn Stick. What?
- 3:38:32What do you think? What do you think A.
- 3:38:34Man could do to a woman with this thing.
- 3:38:38And and how does it use? I went for like a.
- 3:38:40Stabbing approach. The first OK, but OK.
- 3:38:44It has to be a cross then. Not down unless it's up.
- 3:38:50But are you playing Scrabble? I'm trying to judge direction
- 3:38:55because I guess the stabbing. Action before.
- 3:38:56So I'm trying to think what would make sense.
- 3:39:00Yeah, I guess. Yeah, triple word score, I
- 3:39:01guess, underneath. Makes more sense, so let's go
- 3:39:03with. A I'll go with a downward
- 3:39:05position. Let's say it's the woman woman's
- 3:39:09butt vagina. That area coming.
- 3:39:12Down on a straight up Where did that come from?
- 3:39:15From what we were just talking about, I just, you just had it
- 3:39:19and you went completely the other way, Speedy, you were
- 3:39:24close and then you went the exact opposite direction.
- 3:39:30Marks, you are tonight's winner of Analytics.
- 3:39:33Congratulations. Bless it.
- 3:39:36All right, Errol, you got to tell us.

- 3:39:40Simple. Quim is a meaning.
- 3:39:43Of a vagina, OK. A steak is obviously a penis.
- 3:39:47All right, all right. It's used as a weapon.
- 3:39:50It's not obvious. It's it's used as a weapon and
- 3:39:54you wedge it and slap the vagina with.
- 3:40:00It that's that's. What a quim steak is, It's a
- 3:40:03steak. The penis is a steak.
- 3:40:05And you slap the vagina with it. It's like a wedge, you know, you
- 3:40:09wedge it. You got it.
- 3:40:10What do you mean you wedge it? It's you don't wedge it.
- 3:40:13You slap it on it. Yeah.
- 3:40:14Well, the quim is a wedge. That's what, that's what it
- 3:40:17means. Quim is is the meaning.
- 3:40:18Is this a British term or is this like, well, actually it
